What is a blog?

A blog is a web page made up of usually short, frequently updated posts
that are arranged chronologically - like a what's new page or a
journal. The content and purposes of blogs varies greatly - from
links and commentary about other web sites, to news about a
company/person/idea, to diaries, photos, poetry, mini-essays, project
updates, even fiction.

Blog posts are like instant messages to the web.

Many blogs are personal, "what's on my mind" type musings. Others are
collaborative efforts based on a specific topic or area of mutual
interest. Some blogs are for play. Some are for work. Some are both.

Blogs are also excellent team/department/company/family communication
tools. They help small groups communicate in a way that is simpler and
easier to follow than email or discussion forums. Use a private blog on
an intranet to allow team members to post related links, files, quotes,
or commentary. Set up a family blog where relatives can share personal
news. A blog can help keep everyone in the loop, promote cohesiveness
and group culture, and provide an informal "voice" of a project or
department to outsiders.

 

Also.. there are many political blogs that are offshoots from anyone from
shoeshine boys to high profile political activists and journalists.. I
think..Regards, Redshad..
