A blog (a portmanteau of web log) is a website where entries are written in chronological order and commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
Blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject such as food, politics, or local news; some 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) or sexual topics (Adult blog), and are part of a wider network of social media. Micro-blogging is another type of blogging which consists of blogs with very short posts.
In May 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 71 million blogs.[1]
As people are becoming more and more individualistic (oops, I should say single), the area for blogs are increasing. Everyone want to express their opinion and this medium is non intrusive, non suable easy way for addressing this issue. Yes I mentioned issue, because in a place where opinions are highly rated it is always better to keep your mouth shut and sometimes it is very hard to do it. Hence this way. I have been resisting the temptation for a blog, but had to succumb to the needs rather than the wants and here I am blogging.
Anyways as for a first post of mine it is confusing and I believe that as and when I get accustomed to this blogging, I will become more crisp and good. Anyways welcome to my blog page and meet u soon.
Cheers me
