I've seen the word being used but I really have no idea exactly what a 'blog' is. Yes I'm sure some of you are thinking - I don't believe you! but honestly i have no idea. So when I read someone saying can I see your blog or can we exchange blogs what the heck does it mean???? PLEASE shed some light on this. HELP!!!!

blog is like a online diary of our views , experiences . we can put whatever we like on a blog . we may write about our pets , family , studies , job , society , world ... in general , a blog is based on a central theme . some use it like a journal to share their thoughts with the blog visitors . pls see more abt blog on wikipedia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog

Thanks mvsrao, I have just looked on there and when I get more time I shall attempt to read more - there's a lot of information there. But how would I set up my own blog?

in the beginning , one can start with free blog sites ( eg. www.blogger.com ) . As you gain experience , you can think about owning a blog site . if you can visit any of the blogs on www.blogger.com , you can understand how to develop a blog ...
