Blogging

Blogging has become more and more popular and more widely used,

but is, however, just now seeing its potential. 

Between news, media, personal logs, current events, popular culture, etc.,

blogging brings about openness and a new free forum for people

to voice their opinions.

Weblog

The term ‘blog’ is a combination of two words:  Web + Log = Weblog. 

The term ‘Weblog’ was then condensed to the term ‘blog’,

which is widely used today. 

The term ‘blog’ can be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or

add content to a blog, or as a noun, as in the website containing

the written content itself.

Blog

A ‘blog’ is a website where entries are written in journal-format. 

That is, entries are submitted and displayed in chronological order. 

Essentially, a blog is an online diary.  It is used to record personal

accounts, just as a written diary is used. 

However, a blog can also be used for the reporting of news and

fact-based stories, much like a journal.
