What is a Blog?

A blog is the shortened term for weblog. Weblogs have been describe as personal websites, online diaries and a place where you have your own voice.

It is basically a personal website, where you can post content, with the most recent post added being displayed at the top, so it is always up to date. Posts can be anything from your personal thoughts for the day, or photographs of your recent holiday, to recipes you like or reviews of films you have seen.

The possibilities are endless; all with the point of being able to share it with anyone who has access to the internet. The main advantage of having a blog is that you have your own website, with your own choice of layout/look, where you add your own content in a quick and simple way and you don't need to know the ins and outs of how to build a website.
