What is a blog?
A blog is an online journal or weblog. As all things online, it has been shortened or abbreviated to "blog". A blog is a web page made up of usually short, frequently updated posts that are arranged chronologically—like a what's new page or a journal. The content and purposes of blogs vary greatly—from links and commentary about other web sites, to news about a company/person/idea, to diaries, photos, poetry, mini-essays, project updates, even fiction.
What are blogs used for?
- Many blogs are personal, "what's on my mind" type musings, or used as an online journal.
- Blogs can help small groups communicate in a way that is simpler and easier to follow than email or discussion forums. Blogs can allow team members to post related links, files, quotes, or commentary.
- Family blogs can be setup where relatives can share personal news, or "what happened today" posts.
A blog can help keep everyone in the loop, promote cohesiveness and group culture, and provide an informal "voice" of a project or department to others. Blogs are fun to create, and can be interesting to follow. It's reality Internet, where you decide what is posted, and readers are allowed to respond and interact with your postings.
