"Verehrte Fahrgäste, im Bordrestaurant empfehlen wir heute: Zwei Crêpes mit Ketchup, dazu ein Glas Kräuterlimo, für nur 15,98 €."
The term "microblog" comes from micro + blog, ie small blog.
Then, "blog" is a shortened form of "Web log". And a "log" comes from "log book", which is a book used to record events on a journey.
So get this, the "log" in log book is because you would use the book to record the progress and speed of a ship by using a reel attached to a chip log... So called because it's made of wood... ie a log.
So a microblog is a small record of your journey.
I think that's very poetic that this very post is a direct descendent of mariners from 400 years ago.

Ich höre gerade Volker Pispers von 2007 und 2014. Ich möchte behaupten: es hat sich rein gar nichts geändert in den letzten Jahrzehnten (außer, daß #fcknzs wieder salonfähiger werden). Der könnte echt das gleiche Programm nur mit anderen Namen weiter machen.
Aber es ist "schön", wieder an ADAC-Skandale, Edathy, Medienversagen, GruSi (bedarfsorientierte Grundsicherung), Janukowytsch, Goldkettchen-Gerd, usw. usf. erinnert zu werden. Fast sentimental. Schade, daß Menschen nicht lernen.

student: wow. how is the light controlled?
master: with this on-off switch
student: i don't see a motor to close the blinds
master: there is none
student: where is the server located?

master: everything.
in this moment, the student was enlightened
i joined verdi (one of the big unions in germany) (eventhough i don't really agree with them politically on many levels, they do some important stuff and there aren't many other options) and now I'm finding out they offer a lot of useful services to members that i didn't really know about before.
For example they have consulting on doing your taxes or on dealing with landlords, and help you with your communications with Jobcenter/Arbeitsagentur when you're unemployed.
I said "huh they really should advertize this stuff more" and then ellie told me that i should post about it so maybe others who don't know about this stuff can be helped by it so here we are
join a union, they're useful and good for you, and if you don't need the services then your money helps to provide them for those who do!
