The Rise of the Blog
WHAT IS BLOG?
A "blog" is a shortened name of "web blog". They are a kind of personal online diary. People write blogs about all kinds of things, from news and events to hobbies and reviews. Some people use them just as a simple record of what they have done.
WHY ARE BLOGS SO POPULAR?
"Blogging" has come very popular as more and more people use the internet. New technology has made keeping a blog an easy thing to do, so millions of people now have their own blogs. They are usually free to set up and are easy to update. You can upload pictures onto a blog and link to other websites. To many people, these features make blogs much more useful than traditional diaries.
HOW ARE BLOGS DEVELOPING?
We are now able to send text, pictures and video from our cellphones directly onto the web. Combining technologies like this, is making blogging even more convenient. People also think that blogs are better than newspapers for finding out about news, events and opinions. They like to use blogs because they can get information from many different sources. It looks like blogs are going to become one of the most important ways to find and share information in the future.
