What's a blog?

A blog is a personal diary. A
daily pulpit. A collaborative
space. A political soapbox. A
breaking-news outlet. A
collection of links. Your own
private thoughts. Memos to
the world.
Your blog is whatever you
want it to be. There are
millions of them, in all shapes
and sizes, and there are no
real rules.
In simple terms, a blog is a
web site, where you write
stuff on an ongoing basis.
New stuff shows up at the
top, so your visitors can
read what's new. Then they
comment on it or link to it or
email you. Or not.
Since Blogger was launched
in 1999, blogs have
reshaped the web, impacted
politics, shaken up
journalism, and enabled
millions of people to have a
voice and connect with
others.
And we're pretty sure the
whole deal is just getting
started.
