Blogs would be more interesting to read if they wrote about more than blogs.
(I know that there are blogs that do this.)

It took me years to give in and call them 'blogs'. Before the word was so widespread it sounded completely stupid, like some corporate marketingspeak way to sell websites.
You have a website and you put text on it.
It's a website! Or maybe a 'weblog'. but 'blog'? how dumb.
of course now I've succumbed.

blog is a codeword for "this isn't owned by a large corporation, but we don't want you to linger here anyway." If it's not a store, a community site with forums, or a newspaper, it's a blog!
