Actually, the Zeppelin (or dirigible) design is still in use. The difference between a Zeppelin and a Blimp is that the Zeppelin is a rigid airship with the skin stretched over a frame whereas the blimp is a collapsable balloon. Goodyear recently retired their blimp and replaced it with a rigid framed air ship which is more accurately a Zeppelin or dirigible.
