is it a blog?

there is abit of a war going on at the moment, at times it's capetonians vs jo'burgers. it all seems rather silly to me, because part of the debate is about whether or not a website is a blog or not (go read it, i'm not going to go into it)

anyway, it got me thinking about my own website and whether or not it's a blog (a real live one). because some of the comments i read over at jo'blog made me think otherwise. i do think that part of this site is a blog, some of it is a portpholio and another bit of it is a photo gallery.

i don't have permalinks, rss feeds, trackbacks... i never thought about it when i made this dynamic though. not having these elements just means i'm less accessible than others right? so that shouldn't make my website a partial non-blog?

do i have to post everyday? do i have to use some other software to update, rather than my own cms? do i have to have rss feeds? do i have to have links in my posts? can some-one please send me the link to the rule book (for all the internets please) because i'm not quite clear on this.

at the moment it seems that everybody has their own opinion and the one who launches the best-selling book first will be the leader of all.
