Blog Post Equals Webpage?

What does this statement really mean?

"The Google spiders treat individual blogs posts like it treats individual webpages".

Questions:

Let's say I have a blog at blogspot. The overall blog has a non-longtail theme like let's say "Pizza Blog". But I'm making individual long tail posts - based on Market Samurai micro-niche search vs. competition research - like "Gourmet Tuscanic Pepperoni Pizza" and "Pizza Snacks for Kids" and "Hawaiian Grilled Calamari Pizza". Since the spiders treat each post like a webpage, if I get each post SEO'd for very well researched based on good search count and non-competitive niches, I don't really have to worry about the overall "Pizza Blog" aspect of my blog - which I'll never be able to get ranked in the top 20 in a million years anyway - right?

A naive question. If each post is on the same page, they're still treated like individual webpages right, even though you can see three of them on top of each other on your monitor screen?

    All the blogs work in the same way:

    example.com - i.e. your domain is the main website (where you have more than one post displayed, usually, with the newest on the top); which also means adding new posts the content of that main page changes: gets updated = new content

    On the other hand
    example.com/your-post-title-with-long-tail-kw
    is a single post which IS a "webpage" (not site, just page) and is treated by SEs as if you made a website with many individual HTML files (=webpages) and this would be one of them.

      I think that's Istvan's way of saying "yes"

      Are forum posts and twitter tweets treated by the spiders as separate webpages or blog posts? How about squidoo lenses and modules?

    You better ask the spiders

    Anyway, from a technical viewpoint ANYTHING that has its own URL is a webapge.

    And a forum post is NOT a blogpost. You seem to have some major confusions about basic web notions...

    Yes anything with its own specific url is a web page. Every url is different.

      What if I have ten posts visible on the same page? Do they all share the same url? How can I make it so that they are separated?

        I think I found the answer. I went to my blogspot - the one with 10 posts visible on the same page - then I clicked on the title of one of the posts and it took me to a page where it stood alone. So by default it has it's own url right?

        Simple question:

        www.asdfasdfaadfadfasdfadnlnfasd.com is a different url from www.asdfasdfaadfadfasdfadnlnfasd.com/jfjfjfslfa right?

        I know this is obvious to you tech people but it's confusing to me.
