What is a Blog?
I found this article called what is a blog, and it basically goes through and explains thoroughly what a blog is. It states that blog is short for weblog and is known as a personal website that includes peoples thoughts on anything from politics to their daily life. Some blogs are about things such as web design and personal journals. It goes into depth about what blogs are and what they may involve as well as giving tips to future bloggers such as how to set up an interactive blog what blog should include and the difference between a blog and a CMS (Content Management System). It explains what each component of a blog is such as Archives, Feeds, and etc. As well as describing how to manage comments and permalinks.
I really enjoyed this article because it shows what a blog is and describes how to manage a blog and includes tips on how to have a fun and safe blog. Personally this is my first blog so I found this website very informative and helpful in order to creat a successful blog and be able to manage it. I felt like I gain more information then I ever knew existed on blogs such as managing comments and etc.
I think maybe more research could be used in this article such as where blogs began and why. As well as examples of blogs and how people use blogs for their personal business as well as discussing sports and meeting new people via internet.

I think that you found a very good article. For those people like you and me who have never kept an educational blog, it tells us how to correctly maintain one. I also agree with you that if the article is going to tell all about having a blog it should also contain information on how blogs ever got started. Also, the ways in which to connect to those blogs of your particular interest.
I also agree. I feel that it is important to know where and how blogs were ever created, and how they ever got started. I personally had never even heard of a blog until I took this class. There are so many websites that offer so much...........
