What a Blog Is and What It Isn’t
Definition
A blog can be best described as a frequently updated journal or newsletter, designed for timely consumption. It's a platform that often encourages unfiltered and immediate feedback, characterized by a casual or even partisan tone, and usually crafted in a more personal style compared to traditional media outlets.
Diversity of Content
Blogs cover a wide range of topics and styles, from introspective musings of teenagers to showcases of classical photography, and even breaking news and commentary. They can serve as online diaries, sometimes restricted to a small group of friends, or as extensive resources of open-source code sharing useful programs with the world.
Varied Formats
A blog can be an addendum to a company's main business, providing a space where customers give feedback and seek assistance. Whether hosted by individuals, teams, or entire companies, blogs can be set up on dedicated servers using sophisticated templates or lovingly hand-crafted in HTML.
What a Blog Is Not
A blog is not merely an online version of a syndicated column or a newspaper. While many news outlets have a web presence and allow reader interaction, their fundamental business model remains unchanged. The newspaper presents itself as a professional source of all the news that’s fit to print, whereas a blogger shares personal insights and expertise from their own viewpoint.
Evolution and Impact
As blogging gains popularity, the lines between traditional columnists and bloggers are blurring, with some bloggers becoming more professional in their writing. Eventually, the distinction between old and new media may become irrelevant to writers, as it already is for many readers.
Growing Influence
There are now over 20 million individual blogs, with readership rapidly increasing. According to Ad Age, American workers alone will spend the equivalent of 551,000 years reading blogs, rumor sheets, and online diaries in 2005. Globally, hundreds of millions rely on these independent sources for news and entertainment, supporting bloggers through donations, clicks, and the purchase of related merchandise.
