What is a Blog?

Will Richardson’s video

http://sxnuss.people.wm.edu/WebLoggingSmall.mov

A blog (or weblog) is a website in which items are posted on a regular basis and displayed with the newest at the top. Like other media, blogs often focus on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic.
