Weblog -- A blog is an online Web journal or Web log. The act of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger." A blog may be something as simple as an online diary, the musings of a political pundit, or daily notes distributed on a new technology or service. Blogs usually contain links to other blogs and sites that the blogger thinks is worthy.
