As I recall when blogs first came about, "blog" is shorthand for "web log".

A log is a journal.

Ergo, to write a blog is to journal something.

I like the definitions referenced in this[1] article when it comes to log, diary, and journaling. In that way, I wouldn't publish my journals to my blog.
