Blog
The term blog is a neologism that is a contraction of the words “web” and “log.” It is generally an account of recent events or a personal opinion. Some bloggers use their blogs as an online diary. However, blogs can be used by news organizations to report the most up to date events possible. Some writers make their living writing blogs on subjects as varied as celebrity culture, outdoor activities, or holistic medicine. Blogs are typically displayed in reverse chronological order, and feature embedded links in the text, pictures and video.
