A discussion about blogging generally starts in the wild early days of the World Wide Web of the early 90s. The dominant form of personal website during the 90s was the home page. (Some of these were truly awful ;) The history of blogs starts with easily updated "Whats new?" lists of new and interesting websites hence the term weblogs. The genre then diversifies? fragments? into forms such as the online journal, the citizen journalist, the bridge blog which comments on postings from several other blogs, teaching blogs and research blogs.
What they all have in common is separation of content from appearance, easy updating, listing of postings from most to least recent and a collection of recommended links (often other blogs).
Please reply with a comment outlining some of the objectives for your blog.
