what is a blog?
Weblogs, or “blogs” for short, refer to an webpages that are frequently updated in the form of a series of posts archived in reverse chronological order. Most posts are primarily textual and may contain hyperlinks to other websites, but may have pictures, photos, or even videos as well. Many blogs will also have the option for users to leave their comments on a particular entry. In essence, what distinguishes a blog from other types of websites is the notion of frequently dated posts and a webpage that belongs to an individual or a very small group of people for the purposes of conveying information.
