Before blogging became popular, dedicated sites for online personal journals and diaries existed which formed the basis of the modern large-scale Blogging.
Justin Hall , a freelance journalist , is considered to be the pioneer of modern blogging. He began to post his day -to- day experiences on his site in 1994 while still working as a student intern.

There are many different types of blogs. The types of text-based blog are:
1.Personal - These are based on personal lives of people.
2.Collaborative - Here, one individual creates a blog and it allows different users to write to maximize the content of the blog.
3.Corporate - Commonly used to advertise for new services, update readers on the status of an ongoing project, as well as discuss the pros and cons of a given product. Information about a company is written in such blogs.
4.Topical - This are written to discuss a certain activity. Topics discussed range from fishing and photography to programming and hardware. Tips, experiences and reviews of equipment are often discussed on such blogs.
5.Spam - Spam blogs, or splogs, are mostly set up automatically by ‘bots’ (computers performing a series of automated functions autonomously), and are intended to promote commercial companies or products. Spam blogs can cause congestions in blog host servers, taking up precious system resources and bandwidth.

Other types of media blogs are :

1.Podcasts - Podcasts are recorded by the creator, in a similar fashion to radio, and placed on web hosts, for others to download as audio files. Listeners download these files and listen to them via their computers or audio players.
2.Videocast or Vlogging - This is a variation of podcasting in which the user records video as opposed to audio.
3.Photologs - In a photolog, a blogger uploads photos onto his blog. The photos are then displayed as albums or slideshows. Professional and amateur photographers find this an avenue to display their work. Photo albums are also becoming common supplements to ordinary blogs.

Awesome info. I love collaborative blogging because you get more of a variety of blog posts and also it can alleviate some of the work-related stress. Also you can pull more creative resources from a group.
 
Nowadays, you can do all kinds of blogging. Even uploading a video to YouTube with you talking about stuff could be considered blogging.

Yep! AKA vlogging. It's a pretty sweet concept and very easy to do but what's not easy is getting viewers.
 
I think specialized niche blogs have really taken over. Nowadays people type in the specific information into search engines and this is where having a niche blog is a huge benefit. Plus, Google loves all that specialized original content.
