A BLOG.
Well this is my first attempt at the world of blogging, so forgive me for any mistakes. Well I thought about starting this blog, with what exactly a blog is. I had my faithful friend google and it came with the answers straightaway.
A blog (a portmanteau of web log) is a website where 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.
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 for 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 (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), audio (podcasting) are part of a wider network of social media. Micro-blogging is another type of blogging which consists of blogs with very short posts.
As of December 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112 million blogs
Other definitions, I found of a blog were,
A weblog is a hierarchy of text, images, media objects and data, arranged chronologically, that can be viewed in an HTML browser
‘A frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and Web links
‘From “Web log.” 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.”‘
Enough of definitions to get started I think. Will start blogging soon. Hope u all give ur comments.
