What differs, and by how much

Different everyday word The two terms share no characters at all. In Taiwan the standard term is 部落格; on the Mainland it is 博客 - both point at “blog”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 部落格、博客 for this concept. The Mainland standard is among them - the difference is which form each side makes the default.

博客 is HSK 5 vocabulary on the HSK 3.0 list.
