Yep, that's exactly it.  It's just an online journal of rantings, thoughts, daily diary....\n\nHere is one of mine http://bythonic.blogspot.com just to look over.\n\nThere really isn't anything to them.  It's just a way to post whatever you want online for anyone to read.

Blogs not always are for fun. They can have articles and opinions about interesting topics. I have one about Online Marketing with articles and tools, and I dont pretend to be funny there.\n\nGisela Santibanez

Blog is short for "weblog." (Wikipedia will give you good up-to-date info on this subject.) A blog is an online journal - xanga.com, for example, has domain space for several users to post their "blogs." In a blog, people post things about themselves, their lives, or their philosophies for anyone surfing the net to see. Be careful when blogging, however, because anyone Googling your name can come up with compromising info about you, such as that you hate your boss, or, worse, that you hate dry peanuts! (Imagine being force-fed dry peanuts, if that information fell into the wrong hands!)

blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger." Blogs are typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no technical background to update and maintain the blog.

A blog is short for weblog.  It is normally where someone talks about whatever they feel like, sort of like an online diary.  Sometimes people put funny things on their blogs.\nYou would subscribe because you like what they have to say and you want to know when the page is updated.\nThat's the jist of it.

Lo Annie has a great idea. Start a yahoo 360 page. They are really easy to set up, much easier than myspace. Then you can use that as your home page and a safe place for self expression. I like to use my 360 page for my own philosophy and meditation. The cool thing is I have about 50 people who read my page now and send me comments about it. It is sorta like a diary that talks back. I really enjoy it, it sounds like you will too. Contact me when you get it up and running. I would love to hear what you have to say!

My blog statement is as follows: \n\nThis folio is a reflection of how I feel, how I see things, how I view life - a fine mix of poetry, opinion and fiction. You think you know? But you got no idea... this is the journey of Ryan S. ...welcome to my realm.

A diary is a written record or journal of what you do each day.  Many people keep journals as a record of the happenings of the day and their feelings about them. Writers use journals in a different way. Instead of recording what happened each day, they write in a journal on a regular basis to find out more about themselves. They use their journal as a place to polish their voice and keep it strong.\n\nYou can do anything you want in your journal. It’s your own space. There are no rules or structure except what you decide on. The main purpose of a journal is to help you get used to putting ideas on paper.\n\nThese links may give you a few helpful hints.  Good luck with your diary.

A blog (short for the term web-log) is an online diary which you can type in your entries for the world to read. Some people have used blogs for many reasons: to voice opinions, ask questions or just write their daily experiences. Setting up a blog is easy as you can do it at a few sites: http://www.blogspot.com or http://www.bloggers.com and so on and so forth. Check Google for any other blogging sites.

he term blog is a blend of the terms web and log, leading to web log, weblog, and finally blog. Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called blogging. Individual articles on a blog are called "blog posts," "posts" or "entries". A person who posts these entries is called a blogger.\n\nA blog entry typically consists of the following:\n\n    * Title - main title, or headline, of the post.\n    * Body - main content of the post.\n    * Comments - comments added by readers\n    * Permalink - the URL of the full, individual article.\n    * Post Date - date and time the post was published.\n\nA blog entry optionally includes the following:\n\n    * Categories (or tags) - subjects that the entry discusses\n    * Trackback - links to other sites that refer to the entry\n\nA blog site typically contains a list of links, or blogroll, of other blogs that the blog author reads or affiliates with.\n[edit]\n\nHow blogs differ from traditional sites\n\nA blog has certain attributes that distinguish it from a standard web page. It allows for easy creation of new pages: new data are entered into a simple form (usually with the title, the category, and the body of the article) and then submitted. Automated templates take care of adding the article to the home page, creating the new full article page (Permalink), and adding the article to the appropriate date- or category-based archive. It allows for easy filtering of content for various presentations: by date, category, author, or other attributes. It allows the administrator to invite and add other authors, whose permission and access are easily managed.\n[edit]\n\nDifference from forums or newsgroups\n\nBlogs are different from forums or newsgroups. Only the author or authoring group can create new subjects for discussion on a blog. A network of blogs can function like a forum in that every entity in the blog network can create subjects of their class. Such networks require interlinking to function, so a group blog with multiple people holding posting rights is now becoming more common. Even where others post to a blog, the blog owners or editors will initiate and frame discussion, manipulating the situation to their specification.\n[edit]\n\nDigital media\n\nWhile straight text and hyperlinks dominate, some blogs emphasize images (such as webcomics and photoblogs) and videos (see videoblogging).\n\nSome textual blogs link to audio files (see podcasting). A notable niche is the MP3 blog, which specializes in posting music from specific genres. New words have been coined for many of these content-oriented blogs, such as "moblog" (for "mobile blog").

Blog came from web log.  A blog is an internet journal.  Your real question is what is the purpose of keeping a journal/diary?\n\nSome do it because they like to write, others want their opinion heard, some feel if they write down what they did they will leave something for posterity to know how life was.  Still others are writing out goals and their progression with the goals.

It is exactly as the first poster said--an online diary--but it is also so much more.  It is or can be a running stream of consciousness form the writer, a portal to share the latest current news or events, a gossip column--a blog is whatever you want it to be,.\n\nWhy is it so popular?  Because we all like to hear the sound of our own voice!  Many people blog for the opposite reason--to help others.  It is easy to do and can be a load of fun.
