A person (usually young) who participates in all or most of the following:
1. Spending large amounts of time posting entries on his/her blog (usually a blogspot or wordpress blog) about things no
one other than them cares about.
2. Tries any way possible to
get others to
read his/her blog.
3. Posts comments on every blog he/she comes across in hopes that other bloggers will find and comment on his/her blog.
4. Uses their blog to advance other areas of his/her life, such as relationships, positions in work, social status, or anything else.
Blogwhores can come in different categories, the most notable of these include:
- The activist blogwhore, who will
post about 20 entries a
day revolving around news articles which support his/her political views and/or desperately
crying for others to care about his/her favorite political cause.
- The gamer blogwhore, who posts a new entry every time he/she advances in an online game or MMORPG.
- The slutty blogwhore, whose posts are just images of her showing her assets to any willing
male.
- The homeschool mom blogwhore, who truly believes others think her
kids are as valuable members of
society as she does and posts in the mindframe as such.
- The Jesusfreak blogwhore, whose posts are mainly
Bible entries or what he/she saw on The 700 Club last night.
- The pop culture blogwhore, whose blog is dedicated to their favorite movies, bands, TV shows, and websites. Usually, this person tries to come across as some all-knowing pop culture
guru, even though his/her blog is nothing different from Entertainment Weekly.
- The emo/scene blogwhore, whose posts are either lyrics to their favorite emo song at the moment, photoshopped photos of him/her, or rants about how mommy and daddy won't let his/her 16-year old
jailbait ass stay out past
midnight.
