BL1 > Part 1: CUFADM02A Posting: What is a Blog & How I Will Use My Blog

So what is a Blog you ask... well a blog is eerrrr *googles blog*

for starters the term blog is derived from web log, just take out the W and E "BLOG" durrr!, which means to maintain or add content to a blog?

If you asked people 2 years ago what a blog was they wouldn’t have a clue, these days they've become pretty mainstream, blogs are basically an online journal or even news articles posted by usually an individual onto the internet for all public to see.
A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic, some blogs focus on photographs (photoblog), videos (vlog), or audio (podcasting).

I got info from the respectful http://www.wikipedia.org site
.

So how will I be using this blog you ask...

For the purposed of my WebCT Copyright online course, to demonstrate set study, research and homework tasks, demonstrate team activities, and as a creative and Intellectual ranting space for my brain...how scary!
, but more personally to find out what’s the big deal about blogs coz I've never made one myself.
