Blog,Blogger and Blogging

[zaidi]

 A blog is a personal website that contains  content organized  like Journal or Diary.

A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web.   The activity of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger." Blogs are typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no  technical background to update and maintain the blog. Postings on a blog are almost always arranged in chronological order with the most recent additions featured most prominently.

There is no limit to what may be covered in a blog.

It is common for people to write blogs to describe:
 1. Their work.
 2.Their hobbies.
 3. Social and political issues.
 4. News and current events.
 5. Specific subjects.

Really many peoples are confused about blog and blogger. Now it will help for understanding.

From a teacher’s point of view, a blog can become a class notice board, an archive of links
and documents or as a collaboration or discussion tool with his/her students. It can also be
used by the students as a learning reflection tool. Blogs encourage students to write and
also to read on a topic they wish to comment on. Bloggers continually search, filter and post
ideas and information which engage higher order thinking skills. As blogs are open to the
world in the same way as websites, it is possible to allow comments from the readers and to
get feedback. Students can use this feedback to improve on their work.
Blogs also make it very easy to embed video, audio or flash movies. It is also possible to
attach word processing, spreadsheets and pdf files into a blog.
