'''Blogject''' is a [[neologism]] coined by [[Julian Bleecker]] for an object that gathers metadata about its interaction with people, other objects, or its environment. Just as people can [[blog]] about their interactions in the world, blogjects similarly gather and communicate this information as well. The term was first used publicly by [[Bruce Sterling]] during a keynote speech at the O'Reilly [[Emerging Technology Conference]] 2006 in San Diego, California. Bleecker's use of the term is closely related to Sterling's own neologism [[spime]].
