Blog?
Friday, March 23rd, 2007I thought it might be helpful
to explain what I have learned so far about blogsÉ
Blog is a noun which comes
from contracting Òweb logÓ.
When I write a post like this
one it goes to the top of the front page. As it gets older and as I add more
current posts it begins its journey down the page until it disappears from it.
But this is not the end of
itÉ it goes into the ÔArchivesÕ of my blogÉ
This is just like a filing
cabinet that is easily accessible. There
is an Archive button on the left of the page.
See how easy?
A blog is not a monologue but
a conversation. You can give me feedback on everything I write simply by
clicking the ÔcommentsÕ link at the bottom of each one of my posts.
This will take you to a
little form where you leave your name, email and a link to your own blog if you
have one as well as your feedback, comment or question, on why you love my
blogÉ. etc.
Try it now. Scroll to the
bottom of this page, click ÔcommentsÕ and fill in the blanks with a little
introduction to yourself.
In the meantime, here is a
fun site for blog terminology:
