For anyone who is interested in the words that fall into the BrE:-ogue, AE:-og category...


 * Analog - AE sp. more common than BrE sp. -ue is absent universally in related words, e.g. analogy and analogous.
 * Dialog - AE sp. universal when referring to a dialog box, BrE sp. is common when discussing conversation.
 * Catalog - AE sp. more common than BrE sp.; both are acceptable. BrE sp. is prolific outside of the US.
 * Epilog - BrE sp. more common than AE sp.; both are acceptable.
 * Monolog - BrE sp. more common than AE sp.; both are acceptable.
 * Prolog - BrE sp. more common than AE sp.; both are acceptable.
 * Travelog - AE sp. much more common within the US; BrE sp. (travelogue) common outside of the US.

(Note that "sp." is an abridgment of "spelling." "BrE" and "AE" are abridgments of "British English" and "American English," respectively.)
