"A weblog (sometimes called a blog or a newspage or a filter) is a webpage
where a weblogger (sometimes called a blogger, or a pre-surfer) 'logs'
all the other webpages she finds interesting." -Jorn
Barger
"the blog concept is about three things: Frequency, Brevity, and Personality."
-Evan
Williams
"Weblogs ... are designed for an audience. They have a voice. They have
a personality. ... they are an interactive extension of who you are."
-Cameron
Barrett
Weblogs are often-updated sites that point to articles elsewhere on the
web, often with comments, and to on-site articles. A weblog is kind of
a continual tour, with a human guide who you get to know. There are many
guides to choose from, each develops an audience, and there's also comraderie
and politics between the people who run weblogs, they point to each other,
in all kinds of structures, graphs, loops, etc.

Write
a Better Weblog
http://www.alistapart.com/stories/writebetter/
- THERE’S BEEN A RECENT retread of the weblogging phenomenon following
a few articles at PC Mag ,Time , and The Morning News . After posting
my own short list of things that ought to be banned from weblogs, I
realized that a list of things to be encouraged would be more useful.
Some people are new to weblogging. Others want to raise the bar. In
the end, everybody wants better sites, and some of these suggestions
might help.
The bulk of this advice focuses on writing, which is generally at the
heart of weblogs. All of them are obvious yet often ignored, to the
detriment of both the readers and the writers. They’re aimed at
people trying to improve the general appeal of their weblogs, but folks
writing privately for friends and family might also find them useful.
We’ll begin with an example.
