Also quoting wikipedia (but real dictionaries will agree or have more
details),

	"A blob is a shapeless mass."

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blob)

I think this definition transfers well to blobs in software, though.
Without intrusive tools (a disassembler, etc.) you can't make out the
structural details of a blob.


Thanks,
