• Blog
• From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
• A blog is a user-generated website where entries
  are made in journal style and displayed in a
  reverse chronological order.
• Blogs often 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 photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos
  (vlog), or audio (podcasting), and are part of a
  wider network of social media.
• The term "blog" is derived from "Web log." "Blog"
  can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain
  or add content to a blog.
• As of November 2006, blog search engine
  Technorati was tracking nearly 60 million
