What is Blogging?

Blog Scene is a Blog Hosting Web site - We allow our users to set up and use a blog with which they can post entries.

Blogging is the term used for when users post content, whether that be text, images, podcast's to a personal web site - the web site is termed a 'blog' after initially being called a 'weblog' (an online log)

People who post to blogs, are often called 'bloggers', and their list of friends, or fellow 'bloggers' is known as a blog roll.

Blogging is a way of online social networking, because it allows users to actively find blogs which interest them, blogs can be written about anything from particular subjects such as a hobby or job, business use, or for personal everyday use.

Blogs on Blog Scene allow you to publish an RSS (really simple syndication) feed of your posts - RSS is supported in all major browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari) as a way of keeping up with posts.

Blog

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A blog is a user generated web site where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order.

Blogs often provide commentary or news on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual although some focus on photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos (vlog), or audio (podcasting), and are part of a wider network of social media.

The term "blog" is derived from "Web log." "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog
