Blog as wiki puts it is "A website, usually maintained by an individual, with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video.". A thoughtblog however, would be a website on the lines of a blog but here one would pen down his ideas and opinions on things that fall in one's purview.
Blog could be called as a medium through which the reader can touch the author at a superficial level where a thoughtblog would enable the reader to understand the thought process and the ideas / feeling / opinions that make up the person.
To give a clearer picture lets take an example : Two persons ABC and XYZ visit a foreign land and spend three days there visiting a host of places. ABC writes a blog where he describes the places he visited, he can then very well go on to explain the experiences he went through, his feelings and the differences between foreign land and his native land. XYZ however writes a thoughtblog where he might / might not pen down where he went but he might talk about how people on two different lands are so different in the way they live but so similar on a lets say thinking plane, on what could be cause for a particular set of people to live like the way they do while others form there own community which differs.
Well, I would love to call this concept of thoughtblog as my creation but like many other things this has already been taken. People had already been writing thoughtblogs before the idea germinated in my mind, though there are not many of them yet.
