What is a blog?

Blogs have been around for about 10 years. The

word stands for ’web log’ and they’re effectively online diaries. A blog

is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a

blog is “blogging” and someone who keeps a blog is a “blogger.” Blogs are

typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no

technical background to update and maintain the blog. Postings on a blog are

almost always arranged in chronological order with the most recent additions

featured most prominently.
