Blërg is a microblogging platform. Or maybe a miniblogging platform. Blërg is not sure. Blërg is a lot like Twitter, but aims to fix some of its idiosyncracies. Blërg does not want to be a full blogging platform like Wordpress or Livejournal. Blërg is also an open source tagged text database engine written in C that does the back-end work. Blërg's author finds it entertaining to anthropomorphize Blërg in the third person.
