How To Be a Blogger

Several people have asked me, "What is a blog?" A blog or weblog is on online journal. Here is blogger.com's description:

What is a weblog/blog?

A blog is a web page made up of usually short, frequently updated posts that are arranged chronologically—like a what's new page or a journal. The content and purposes of blogs varies greatly—from links and commentary about other web sites, to news about a company/person/idea, to diaries, photos, poetry, mini-essays, project updates, even fiction.

You can read a more in-depth introduction or surf over to a list of the most popular blogs on the 'Net.

To start your own blog, you can use Blogger (or other blog-authoring software) to post a blog to your own web site or www.blogspot.com. Email me for information on how to add reader comments or email update notifications to your blog.
