Patron saints take two

There is a patron saint for everything.

For example, the patron saint of the Internet is St. Isidore of Seville, who wrote the first encyclopedia. A lot of knowledge that would have been lost during the dark ages if his book wasn't written and copied all over the place.

But who is the patron saint of bloggers?

The KurtJester suggests St. Jerome:

best known for two things: His biblical scholarship, and his bad temper:

Perhaps because of his wide exposures to many people and travels, he developed a pugnacious and cantankerous disposition at times. His keen intellect could be contentious when his vision of truth differed from others...." [Source]

Yup. That sounds like a lot of bloggers I know...
