blog\n(WeBLOG) A Web site that contains dated entries in reverse chronological order (most recent first) about a particular topic. Functioning as an online journal, blogs can be written by one person or a group of contributors. Entries contain commentary and links to other Web sites, and images as well as a search facility may also be included. A blog with video clip entries instead of text is a "video Weblog" (see vlog).\n\nAlthough some blogs invite feedback and comments from visitors, Internet newsgroup discussions, which started long before the Web, tend to be more question-and-answer oriented (see newsgroup).\n\n\nSoftware and Services\n\nBlogs took off in 1999 after blog development applications such as Pitas, Blogger and GrokSoup were released. The template-based software made it easy to create an online blog and continuously add entries without having to write the pages in HTML. Blog hosting services make it even easier to create a blog. All the development is done through the browser, and no software downloads are required.\n\n\nSites that Index Blogs\n\nBy the end of 2005, there were more than 18 million blogs, and there are sites that track and index them (visit www.technorati.com and http://blogsearch.google.com).\n\n\nThe News Feed\n\nMany blog sites offer an RSS or Atom syndication feed that provides headlines of their latest entries along with URLs to the content (see syndication feed).\n\n\nA Global Forum\n\nAfter the 9/11 attacks in New York, blogs were used to convey information, thoughts and feelings faster than any previous method. On controversial issues as well as mainstream subjects, blogs have become a forum for public expression that can quickly reach people around the world. See blogosphere, blogrolling, blognosing, blogorrhea, blogger, War blog and dooced.

he term blog is a blend of the terms web and log, leading to web log, weblog, and finally blog. Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called blogging. Individual articles on a blog are called "blog posts," "posts" or "entries". A person who posts these entries is called a blogger.\n\nA blog entry typically consists of the following:\n\n    * Title - main title, or headline, of the post.\n    * Body - main content of the post.\n    * Comments - comments added by readers\n    * Permalink - the URL of the full, individual article.\n    * Post Date - date and time the post was published.\n\nA blog entry optionally includes the following:\n\n    * Categories (or tags) - subjects that the entry discusses\n    * Trackback - links to other sites that refer to the entry\n\nA blog site typically contains a list of links, or blogroll, of other blogs that the blog author reads or affiliates with.\n[edit]\n\nHow blogs differ from traditional sites\n\nA blog has certain attributes that distinguish it from a standard web page. It allows for easy creation of new pages: new data are entered into a simple form (usually with the title, the category, and the body of the article) and then submitted. Automated templates take care of adding the article to the home page, creating the new full article page (Permalink), and adding the article to the appropriate date- or category-based archive. It allows for easy filtering of content for various presentations: by date, category, author, or other attributes. It allows the administrator to invite and add other authors, whose permission and access are easily managed.\n[edit]\n\nDifference from forums or newsgroups\n\nBlogs are different from forums or newsgroups. Only the author or authoring group can create new subjects for discussion on a blog. A network of blogs can function like a forum in that every entity in the blog network can create subjects of their class. Such networks require interlinking to function, so a group blog with multiple people holding posting rights is now becoming more common. Even where others post to a blog, the blog owners or editors will initiate and frame discussion, manipulating the situation to their specification.\n[edit]\n\nDigital media\n\nWhile straight text and hyperlinks dominate, some blogs emphasize images (such as webcomics and photoblogs) and videos (see videoblogging).\n\nSome textual blogs link to audio files (see podcasting). A notable niche is the MP3 blog, which specializes in posting music from specific genres. New words have been coined for many of these content-oriented blogs, such as "moblog" (for "mobile blog").

A weblog (usually shortened to blog, but occasionally spelled web log or weblog) is a web-based publication consisting primarily of periodic articles, most often in reverse chronological order. Early weblogs were simply manually updated components of common websites. However, the evolution of tools to facilitate the production and maintenance of web articles posted in said chronological fashion made the publishing process feasible to a much larger, less technical, population. Ultimately, this resulted in the distinct class of online publishing that produces blogs we recognize today. For instance, the use of some sort of browser-based software is now a typical aspect of "blogging". Blogs can be hosted by dedicated blog hosting services, or they can be run using blog software on regular web hosting services.

Blog is short for weblog. 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.

There is a hundred different definitions to a "blog."  Some are kept as political or social commentaries.  Some are kept for one particular interest, such as a scrapbooking or knitting.  Some are kept as just mundane journals that everyone can see.  Many have photos or audio includes and there are lots of free services to help new bloggers begin.
