The Bloggernacle or Bloggernacle Choir is a name that has been adopted by the LDS blogging community to describe the Mormon portion of the blogosphere. It was created as a play on words of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. An individual LDS blogger is sometimes referred to as a bloggernacker, nacker, naccer or bloggern.

History

On March 23, 2004, due to an article in The Revealer, the Mormon blogging community noticed that the Jewish and Catholic blogging communities had adopted names for themselves. In a blog post titled "The Nameless Mormon Blogosphere", the writer Kaimi Wenger at the LDS blog Times and Seasons sought to remedy this situation and asked for suggestions for a name. Christopher Bradford posting under the name "Grasshopper" suggested "Bloggernacle Choir", the shortened version of which gained wide approval. "Bloggernacle" is a term that has been used frequently by LDS bloggers.

During 2005, several LDS-themed podcasts entered the Bloggernacle to augment LDS blogging with audio programming.
