A blog “web log” is a type of Web site or a part of a Web site. Blogs are usually maintained by an individual. This individual makes regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material. This individual often uses graphics or video to make entries. Entries are usually displayed in reverse-chronological order.
There are many different types of web logs personal, corporate and organizational, by genre, by media type, and by device. Many web logs provide commentary or news on a particular subject. Other blogs function more as an online diary. A blog usually contains text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to the topic. Many web logs allow readers to post comments.
The modern blog evolved from the online diary, where people would keep a running account of their personal lives. These online diaries used text, video, and pictures in their sharing. Early web logs were simply manually updated components of common Web sites. Now, there are many tools to help the blogger with the production and maintenance of blogs. Today, the use of some sort of browser-based software is a typical aspect of blogging. There are now dedicated blog hosting services and blog software to help bloggers.
Blogging rapidly gained popularity with the arrival of the first hosted blog tools in 1998. These tools allowed readers to comment on the writers’ blog entries. Since 2002, blogs have gained increasing notice for their role in breaking, shaping, and spinning news stories. By 2004 the role of blogs became increasingly main stream.
