A Blog

Submitted by Jesse_Willis on Thu, 2008-10-30 20:56

I've not really paid much attention to this blogging craz that has taken the world by storm so am mostly unaware of what it is supposed to be. Is it some sort of journal that the public can read or is there supposed to be a particular topic? Do I just write about myself or is it acceptable to write about others? What are the rules of this game? Is there ettiquet or is it a mosh pit?

I'm sure there are as many answers to your question as there are bloggers in the world.  I think of a blog as the online equivalent of, "Hey, I've been thinking...," and you proceed to share your thoughts on what you've been thinking.  A blog differes from an article or story; it does not require support or complete thoughts.  It's a great way to share ideas you're still working on.  Of course it can still be a well thought out argument or a journal entry, etc.

As far as rules, use the same rules you would use in real-life.  After all, it is real life.
