the weblog or blog is a frequently updated online personal journal. it expandd to cover any linkable posting where a person gets to speak his mind more than once. it is updated frequently and sometimes group links by specific subjects such as politics,news,pop culture or computer issues. this explain why some people call the blog a website to friends and family members
the rise of tools like Blogger has changed the content of webblog. while they had begun as link -drive sites offering alternative viewpoints on news and other subjets, webblog began to collide with online journals. Blogger -style tools allow link and commentary to quikly grow into longer esssays and dairies on the blogs , which may get confuse with online journals for they frequently overlap in contect and style
most blog are individual blogs created by one person .Group blogs are becoming as comman as individual blogs. most people do not have the time to make entries in their blogs every day while groups can. in this context , the lines between blogs and dicussion will blur. Contributing to a blogs dicussion requires less effort than creating one"s own blog and taking the initiative to come up with different topics every day or so.
since 2001, weblog have gained increasing notice and coverage for their role in breaking ,shaping or spinning news stories. One of the most significant events was the september 11,2001 attacks , many blogs which supported the United States 'War On Terrorism' quickly gained readership among a public searching for information to understand that event . This was followed by the sudden emergence of an interest in the Iraq war,which saw both left-wing and right-wing bloggers taking measured and passianate points of view that did not reflect the traditional lefr-right divide
