what is a blog

 

“A blog (a contraction of the term "web log") is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.” – wikipedia

A blog is a short form of “weblog” that refers to an online diary, which is visible to everyone on the Internet, but now a blog is much bigger than its early days. A blog is just like a personal diary that you write regularly but the big difference between a blog and personal diary is that a blog is visible to every one unlike a diary, any one can read it with the help of Internet. A common thing between blog and diary is that both the things are sorted by date but blogs are usually sorted reverse by date.

Blogging is nothing but your idea, knowledge and experience about a topic, therefore it is very important to think about your topic hundreds of times before starting it.

Not sure what your blog should be about? Here are some suggestions.
