Wiki, Cookie, Blog, Blook all are hated words

I guess there is no dictionary reference of the word ‘Blook’. Its pronunciation is same as Book. For an online user, Blook means Book (Read Wikipeida). Will a common man (forget about linguistic experts) accept ‘Blook’, as standard English? Wiki, Cookie, Blog, Blook and to add Social Networking, all are the popular words, at least for a net-savvy like me. Ironically, they are now the most hated words, according to YouGov. Reason: Mockery of English language. The recent YouGov survey of 2,091 people has come up with the top-ten hated words rapidly used in the Internet. They are (Rank wise) folksonomy, Blogosphere, Blog, Netiquette Blook, Webinar, Vlog, Social Networking, Cookie and Wiki. Surprisingly, the survey has not provided any replaced words of these web words. I feel that it is better to add these words in English dictionary. Image
