What is Blog?
July 13th, 2009 | Author: admin
This question looks odd to most people; the question should not be what is blog but rather what is a blog?
By the way…… You are reading one right now.

A blog originally was a personal website meant to be like a diary or journal. If you are familiar with Facebook or MySpace, these sites and their user pages are a derivative of blogs. The word blog is the shortened version of the word weblog. A person would usually create a blog as a hobby to share their information and experience on a particular subject. The blogs are designed to be very easy to add new entries to, so the information on blogs is updated much more frequently than a traditional site. As the blogger adds entries to the blog, the viewers can add comments to the entries, so the blog becomes an interactive site. If the blogger is interesting it does not take long for that blog to create quite a following.
Blogs have been around for a few years now and have been heavily commercialized for business blogging so that today as you surf the web you often do not know if you are looking at a blog website or a traditional html website. Truth be told though it does not matter what type of website it is, they are both designed to do the same thing…. get information out to the public.
There is a common misconception that blogging requires a certain level of sophistication and that the whole process is complicated. I assure you that driving a car is much more complicated than blogging. The fact that you have found this article is proof enough that you can blog. If you have a passion for something, whatever the subject is, and you want to tell others what you know about that subject, you can be a big help to someone else who is interested in the subject but does not have the experience or knowledge about it that you do. That is the spirit behind blogs and it is why blogs are such a huge part of the internet culture of our day.
If you want to know more about blogging, how you can create your own blog, what kind of topics can you cover, the costs ($0) or requirements involved, check out this blogging guide but at least for now you know what is blog.

September 17th, 2009 | Author: admin
As the name of this site: what is blog implies, this blog is intended to educate its readers on the different types of blogs. You may have heard the term fail blog and wondered what is that? A fail blog is a blog like any other in terms of its technical composition. It’s the content of the blog that makes it unique. The fail blog is very much like the TV show America’s funniest videos. This blog consists of pictures and videos and stories of people who are attempting to do something and failing miserably.

Fail blogs are extremely entertaining, they often don’t last for very long and usually they will have a short voice over video that introduces the situation and comments you through the different areas that exist. You will find an amazing variety of failures. People trying everything from skateboard tricks to motorcycle stunts and people just trying to walk down the street.
If you just need a good laugh give a fail blog a try. They can certainly make you have a better day because you will know that however bad your day is, it is definitely better than that guy on the fail blog
