What is a blog? Blogging Defined

You might have stumbled on this site because you were asking yourself what a BLOG is. First I will provide you several definitions of blog according to popularity.

Definition from en.wikipedia.org:
"a blog is a type of website or part of a website that are usually maintained by an individual or a group with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other materials such as graphics or video."

Definition from merriam-webster.com:
" a blog is a website that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments and often hyperlinks provided by the writer."

Definition from ojr.org:
" a blog is a derivative of 'weblog'. It is a series of entries to an online journal posted in some chronological order. It can be written by an individual or a group."

With these definitions at hand, we now can conclude what a blog is. In fine, we can consider a blog as an online journal, an online diary, or a collection of your personal account on anything which are logged and stored in the internet.


How about you? Do you have your own definition of a blog? Do you want to start blogging now?
On my next post I will provide you some tips on how you can start your blog.
