What is a blog ?
A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. A blog comprises text, hypertext, images and links ( to other web pages and to video, audio and other files ) . Blogs use a conversatioal style of documentation.
The activity of updating a blog is“blogging” and someone who keeps a blog is a “blogger.”
Individual articles on a blog are called “blog posts,” “posts” or “entries”.
Blogs usually have a few features that are useful to know about if you want to get the most out of them as a reader. Lets examine a couple briefly.
Comments – Not all blogs use comments – but most do. This blog is a conversation. You can give me feedback on almost everything I write simply by clicking the ‘comments’ link at the bottom of each one of my posts. This will take you to a little form where you leave your name, email and a link to your own blog if you have one as well as your feedback, comment, critique, question, essay on why you love my blog.
Chatbox - If you have any questions or views , you may use the chatbox. However, do not use it to chat with your friends.
