7. Problogger (a blogger) has blogged about what a blog is in his blogpost… “What is a blog” in reference to other bloggers defining blogging….. ‘ A weblog is kind of a continual tour, with a human guide who you get to know. There are many guides to choose from, each develops an audience, and there’s also comraderie and politics between the people who run weblogs, they point to each other, in all kinds of structures, graphs, loops, etc.’ Source Wikipedia : A blog (short for web log ) is a user-generated website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. Blogs also provide readers with the option to leave comments , which makes it possible to start a discussion around a blog post
