I've had quite a few friends and family ask me "What is a blog?"
To put it simply it's a place where anyone can create and share a log or diary as it were of their thoughts, ideas, hopes, dreams, ramblings, rantings, the sharing of good times and bad......and more. What ever you wish can be put in your blog.
A blog is even better when readers choose to post comments on the blog; in such lively discussions that can ensue new ideas can be brought to light, wisdom can be shared, humor can bring a laugh or a smile, advice can be asked and offered....and...most importantly; new friends can often be made! So, if you are reading this blog I'd welcome your comments on any of the postings.
Anyway, thanks for reading, thanks for visiting, and I hope you come back often.
For those wabting a more complete definition of blog I found this on wikepedia:
A blog is a website in which items are posted on a regular basis and displayed in reverse chronological order. The term blog is a shortened form of weblog or web log. Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called "blogging". Individual articles on a blog are called "blog posts," "posts" or "entries". A person who posts these entries is called a "blogger". A blog comprises text, hypertext, images, and links (to other web pages and to video, audio and other files). Blogs use a conversational style of documentation. Often blogs focus on a particular "area of interest", such as Washington, D.C.'s political goings-on. Some blogs discuss personal experiences.
Blogs can be hosted by dedicated blog hosting services, or they can be run using blog software on regular web hosting services. In the early 21st Century, blogging has quickly emerged as a popular and important means of communication, affecting public opinion and mass media around the world.
