Blog
A Blog is a website published on the world wide web that is composed of entries meant to inform or converse with the audience. Blogs can be written by a single individual or by a group of people and tend to focus on a single subject. Blog entries (or posts) are not limited by size and can contain several hundred words or as few as a couple hundred characters. (Still being developed)

History
Blogs were originally called weblogs, a term invented by John Barger in 1997, until Peter Merholz announced that he planned to pronounce the word as "wee-blog" in 1999, which was then shortened to "blog."[1]
