Is there any difference between talking to yourself and blogging?

I had a question recently about why I had a [tag]blog365[/tag] badge on here even though it appears I’ve missed a few days.

Here’s why: the rules say you can spread your year of reckless posting abandon across multiple sites. So I’m not just here, I’m here and here, too. And, although I’m neglecting them something awful, I’m also supposed to be here and here. Essentially, all those places that are linked up yonder in the upper right-hand corner of the page. Plus, I figure since I talk to myself a lot that should count for something, too.
