Let's eliminate the word "blogging..."

Picture_6 ...And stop pursuing CEO's who blog...". Not my words, but those of premier CEO blogger Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz in his post, The Internet vs. Stone Tablets:

[...I'd love it if we one day eliminated the term "blogging" from the web lexicon (and that we stopped pursuing "CEO's who blog."). CEO's who have cell phones aren't "cell-phoners," those who have email accounts arent "emailers," those who give interviews on television aren't "TV'ers" - they're all leaders using technology to communicate. Communication is central to leadership - using words, written or spoken, to articulate strategy, guide organizations, engage in dialog, and... lead. Leading two or 200,000, you can't do it without communicating...]

While we're at it, can we also do as someone suggests in the comments and drop the word "blogosphere". And what about a more endearing term for RSS?
