What is blogging?

Before I begin with a description on what is blogging, I will first discuss what exactly is a blog? A BLOG is a word derived from weblog which is a sort of a personal website that serves as a chronicle of information that keeps on growing by and by. Blogs are resources of information that are created by individuals(mostly) and are continuously updated as well. These weblogs may be based on any sort of topic that can run through a person's mind. A weblog may discuss political matters whereas a weblog may also be used to publish one's personal pictures and videos. It depends on the individual who is creating the weblog what exactly he wants from it. They also serve as a medium of propaganda where people advertise their other products or sell other links which serves the purpose of earning some descent revenue from their blogs.
There are two basic classifications done on the type of blogs. The classification is done on what sort of topic has been chosen for the weblog. Blogs maybe concentrated on a particular topic such as sports, technology, printers, cars, automobiles or maybe centered around something very personal from the author like the author writing out a page each day on his everyday life!!
A Blog has various parts. There is a content area that contains the main content or matter of the blog. The newest content or 'POST' is on the top and there is an archive of older posts in the blog. There is a method for the readers to leave comments on the content that studied on the blog. There is an option for categories where you can classify your posts or the content in various posts into different categories depending on the nature and behavior of the content. Also there are links to similar blogs that cover similar topics.
Blogging, is a way of interacting with others for individuals who do not own a website. They update their blogs regularly and the increased content attracts readers to see these posts or weblogs. Blogging, in the past few years has grown rapidly as it helps individuals to express themselves to a large pool of readers and provides a vast platform, the internet, to spread information that they want to share with thier readers.
