I was watching 'Mastermind' this evening and one of the contestants (either an IT engineer or a programmer) got asked what was the common contraction used for 'web log'.
I knew the answer, from reading this thread, but he didn't :)
The only time I ever got more answers than the contestant on Mastermind was the specialised subject "The Lord Peter Wimsey novels of DL Sayers". Mind you, the contestant was terrified at being on TV.
