A blog, short for weblog, is a website that regularly updates new information about any topic. The latest
posts appear first. An American blogger named Jorn Barger coined the term weblog in 1997. It is like

online publicly. The text is conversational in style.
Blogging is the act of writing and maintaining a blog, which includes photography and other media that
