So we are here in this page to know in simple terms on what a blog is actually and a bit of history on how it evolved and what we can do with a blog.
Who founded blog?
Well this question has no definite answer but, blogs came into existence in 1990’s. Those days’ people use to write down about their personal lives in an online diary which later evolved as blogs.
What is a blog?
Blog is an online diary or Journal and it has an easy way of publishing contents online. It derives its name from weblog. Basically one can write a blog on anything which can then be shared with others. It can be literally anything like movies, sports, cooking, education, hobbies and the list goes on…..
If you are still confused on what a blog is then we can put it this way “A blog is similar to a website but here each topics or post is arranged in such a way that the recent ones are on the top and the older post at the bottom. Blogs are updated regularly.
Blogs have archives section where all the post written in previous months are stored. This is because over a period of time the numbers of post will be too many and it’s not good to have them all in the first page itself.
A blog can also have comment section for each post where a reader can type in comments about the post which inturns helps the blogger interact with the reader.
Blogs need not contain only text contents but can also have videos, podcast, pictures and lots more…
I hope this gives you an idea of what a blog. You can search for different blogs for more information in fact you can browse around this blog to understand what you read so far. But at the end of the day I would suggest to create a blog of your own and play with to know more. There are quite free softwares for blogging but that I will share in detail in my next post.
Wish you all the best in creating a blog of your own and hope to see you around with more on blogging.
