Meta Meta Data?

Hello, Karstuhl here!

Sometimes, Mommys blog entries do not revolve around any other subject than writing the blog as such. In modern language, one often says that a text that does not revolve around any other subject than the content as such are meta data. I believe this is borrowed from computer science, where meta data is data about other data, or content about content.

I believe meta texts like these are rather boring to read. It is more fun to read about stuff that has happened, is happening, or might happen, than just to read about the process of writing about such stuff.

On the other hand, when I write about meta data, can this be called meta meta data? If meta data is a boring read, would not meta meta data be an even more boring read? Gosh, if this is the case, I might just have written the most boring entry ever in Mommy's blog. I hope this is not the case.

Further on, if anybody would comment on this meta meta data, would that be meta meta meta data?
