I laughed when my sister looked at my website and posed the question. I’m new to this, so I understood her confusion. For the uninitiated, what is a blog? I’d like to start my explanation with a simple, broader Wikipedia definition:
“A blog is a discussion or informational website published on the WWW consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries (posts). Visitors can review content and offer online comments. This process makes blogging a form of social networking. Content could be textual, art, videos, music and audio (podcasts).” Wikipedia
Want to learn more? Visit your favorite website and look for their blog or google a subject of interest with the word blog. In my case, I follow two excellent blogs (NPR and Celebrity Cruise Lines) that support my passion for wellness, writing, and travel. The NPR blog offers concise audio (news and stories) on a host of issues. Celebrity’s blog offers inside stories, videos, and insight from customers and staff.
My blogging effort reflects a more personal blog or online diary. I aspire to one day write a novel! That’s a big goal, huh? Oddly enough, this past time fires me up to dive into my well of creativity and keeps me focused. So, my sister, this is what a blog is and why I blog.
