What is a blog?


Share/Save/Bookmark

A blog (a contraction of the term "weblog") 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.

Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others 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), sketches (sketchblog), videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), and audio (podcasting). Micro-blogging is another type of blogging, featuring very short posts like Twitter.

  1. Volverene, you have managed to accomplish what no-one else has been able to w/ this Template . I had made this Template as a Web Template several months ago myself ( but I had made it in Fuschia-Pink & Glossy Black ) , and as you already know : the menu is closed and once the user clicks on it ,it expands . I have this little gadget here which you may wanna 'fumble' around with. If you can apply an API into it & turn it into something like a Lifestream widget, it would be awesome . Check it out & play around with it if you like @ USING CSS SPRITES. Consider making this template in any other colors ? :))
