Define: Blog
A blog (a blend of the term web log) is a type of website or part of a
website. All weblogs are websites, but not all websites are
weblogs

Blogs are usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of

commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics
or video.

Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order.


Blog vs Website
Creating a nonblog Web site is hard, and the difficulties discourage frequent
updates.

Blogging is easy, and blogging software encourages frequent site updates.

Creating a blog page doesn’t need to be any harder than writing and sending
an e-mail or posting a message to an online discussion forum.


Terminology

Blogger
a person who keeps and updates a blog

Blogging
The design, editing and updating of a blog


History

The term “weblog” was coined by Jorn Barger on 17 December 1997.

The short form, “blog,” was coined by Peter Merholz, who jokingly
broke the word weblog into the phrase we blog in the sidebar of his
blog Peterme.com in April or May 1999.
