Graphics, User Interfaces The past few weeks, as you surely have noticed, I have written a few articles on various usability terms [part I | part II | part III | part IV | part V]. I explain what they mean, their origins, as well as their implications for graphical user interface design. Even though the series is far from over, I would like to offer a bit more insight into why I am diving into these subjects.

I) OSNews IS a blog.


You certainly have a strange definition of "blog", considering "blog" means "personal web log" to the rest of the world. As in, only 1 person writes the articles, usually one per day, that people can comment on. The main criteria for a blog is that there is only 1 author for all the articles.

II) WE get to decide what belongs on the front page.


That right there is what prevents OSNews from being a blog. You can't have editors, and decision makers, and call yourself a blog. That would make it a news site. Hence the name as well.
