It doesn't stand for anything as blog isn't an acronym; it's a shortened form for 'web log'.
I did a bit of searching and blog is listed as an acronym in many places although in any case, it seems more of an abbreviation to me.

The word blog is short for weblog.
"A weblog, which is usually shortened to blog, is a type of website where entries are made (such as in a journal or diary), displayed in a reverse chronological order..."

So it looks like the b comes from the "web" part of weblog.
