As the title says, write the two characters "博客" on the signature, and after saving, it will become "网志" by itself. Although the meaning is the same, why is that? It seems as awkward as seeing program said as 程式, video said as 视讯, software said as 软体!

Although I find some terms in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan a bit awkward, there are a few translations that I think are better than those on the mainland. The term "web log" (网志) I think is better than the mainland's "blog". Blog itself is the abbreviation of Web Log. Obviously, the term "web log" can better reflect its exact meaning, but the term "blog" is just a direct transliteration. If someone who doesn't know it comes across it for the first time, they simply don't know what it is. I really don't know what the person who translated this term was thinking at the time. I can say it's irresponsible shoddy work. Some current text workers, especially some media reporters, are getting worse generation by generation. When encountering a new noun, they just pick it up and use it randomly, completely lacking the dedicated spirit of the older generation of translators who would choose words word by word.

This is the reason I know that "web log" became "blog" in this forum:
