Hi there,
Blogging is a way of collecting links to web pages and sharing thoughts and ideas with people online.
Blogs (or Weblogs) are basically online journals or diaries which are great for sharing information and ideas.

"A blog is a personal diary. A daily pulpit. A collaborative space. A political soapbox. A breaking-news outlet. A collection of links. Your own private thoughts. Memos to the world."
As well as text, blogs often contain audio, music, images and video.
They're also really easy to make, so you can have one even if you aren't very technical.
Anything can be posted instantly to a blog.
Why Blog
Surfing's no fun if you can't tell people what you've found.
How many times have you sent e-mails to your mates with the address of a particularly interesting web page, annotated with your own hilarious comments?
Wouldn't it be good to get your own web page where you could publish these comments, plus the links you find, turn it into a daily journal of thoughts and ideas and make the whole thing available to the world?
Well now you can, and if you do, you'll be joining the phenomenon that has become 'blogging'.
The history of blogs
Blogging has become something of a big thing in the last few years, and some of the biggest and best-known weblogs attract the kind of traffic that even big-name e-commerce sites would be jealous of.
Weblogs are more than pages of links - they tend to reflect the personalities of their owners. They are personal web pages, updated very often.
They are the product of their owners' imaginations, interests, and wit, and it's probably this personal touch which has made them so popular, especially for political issues.
Thank you.
