Diaries, logs and blogs

I haven't kept a diary in my old diary for several years. My book with me for many years should be almost deserted, why I do not write diary in Journal, because the time has passed than on paper diary, now there are newer ways to complete this ancient function-log (blog).

What is a log (blog)? A log (blog) is a Web page that is usually made up of short and frequently updated articles (post), which are arranged by year and date. Blog content by the individual likes. Can be published or posted on companies, individuals, news, or diaries, photographs, poetry, prose, and even science fiction. The people who write these blogs are called bloggers.

What's the difference between a diary and a journal? The biggest difference is that the diary contains the concept of journaling, the log is for many people to see, the log has its own feedback system, others will look at your log, if there are different opinions, but also feedback to you, this is the biggest difference between the journal and diary-openness. Of course, many diaries can not be given to others, such as personal privacy, personal political beliefs, political views, and so on, these can only be written in a diary, if written in the journal, it will bring a lot of unnecessary trouble. This openness is actually a flaw in the log, not all things can be written in the log, so the diary (or encrypted log) is still necessary.

Blogging is another way to translate blogs and bloggers. In the last year or two, some internet companies scrambled to "blog" for their own profit. There is a good side, there is a bad side. Good to be able to promote the popularity of blog, to increase the composition of the group, the bad side of the blog is the concept of the vulgar, elitist, so many old bloggers in the heart very unhappy, so have a few blog door faction dispute.

Of course, it is better to translate blog into log, because its function is log, there is no mysterious place, for commercialization of the purpose of translating it as a blog, always feel a little strange.

Whatever the name of the blog, it is a very good personal information publishing platform, its installation easy, easy to operate, rich in resources, whether we use it to do diary or personal homepage, or CMS, he can play their own unique functions, and rich templates and plug-ins resources, that is enough.
