 "A blog (a
blend of the term web log)
is a type of
website or part of a website. Blogs are
usually retained by an individual with
regular entries of commentary, descriptions
of events, or other material such as
graphics or video. Entries are commonly
displayed in reverse-chronological order.
Blog can also be used as a verb, meaning
to maintain or add content to a blog.
Most blogs are interactive, allowing
visitors to leave comments and even message
each other via widgets on the blogs and it
is this interactivity that distinguishes
them from other static websites.Many blogs
provide commentary or news on a particular
subject; others function as more personal
online diaries. A typical blog combines
text, images, and links to other blogs,
Web pages, and other media related to
its topic. The ability of readers to leave
comments in an interactive format is an
important part of many blogs. Most blogs are
primarily textual, although some focus on
art (art
blog), photographs (photoblog),
videos (video
blogging), music (MP3
blog), and audio (podcasting).
Microblogging is another type of
blogging, featuring very short posts."
