Paul Hutchinson (Hutch) is annoyed. Check it out.
I agree that a “blog” is not a post. A post is a blog post just like an article in a magazine is a magazine article, but a post is analogous to an article.
I would add this: A comment on a blog post is not a post. It is a comment. Feel free to comment below or on Paul’s post if you like.
Oh, wait, you can’t comment on Paul’s Blog posts because comments are closed on his blog. Which makes me wonder if it is really a blog. It may not be technically true, but a blog should have a comment section, in my view. And, I know Paul’s web site is a blog (and not an “I’m not a blog I’m a web site” blog) because he calls it a blog in the name of the web site.
Have you read the breakthrough novel of the year? When you are done with that, try:

That was funny, thanks for the good laugh.
I set comments to auto-close after 30 days to cut down on spam. That post was from back in May, I just changed the pub date so comments are again open on the post in case anyone’s interested.
The incorrect nomenclature drives me nuts too. I like the magazine/article comparison.
I suppose that since blogging is a such a new format that people are confused. I wonder if blog platforms could make the nomenclature more clear to new bloggers. It can get confusing when commenters or bloggers refer to comments as “posts”.
