as a layman, the new Isn'T you hear the term "blog", I still confused how to explain exactly what the purpose of the blog. Start my first blog is created as a place of learning and sharing what I experienced in my daily life, but when I see friends make other bloggers blog for other purposes other than providing the information also makes it the money or land, in other words, while diving drink water.

Not a few of the bloggers who have dollars with this free website. Even free blog site, this is not just one but there are some that provide free, one of which may be often used by most people is www.blogger.com.

Initially, the word blog is used as the abbreviation of weblog, the term first used by jorn barger in December 1997. Jorn barger weblog using the term for a group of his personal website, which is always updated continuously and contains links to other websites that they come with interesting comments of their own.

Roger Yim, a San Francisco Gate columnist, in February 2001, writing a blog that is a cross between a diary and a list of links on the Internet. Scott Rosenberg in columns in the Online magazine Salon in May 1999 concluded that the restrictions are on the blog website is more of a soul on a collection of links, but less introspektif from a diary on the internet in the store.

The word blog comes from the abbreviation weblog. Being the blog author, manage blogs, or adding an article on the blog that has been called "blogging." Articles in the personal blog called "blog post", "post", or "entries". Persons who enter into any posts on a blog called "bloggers".

Often blogs focus on a specific topic, such as what is happening with the political world. Some blogs discuss personal experiences, so the definition according to www.wikipedia.org blog

But according to my blog is an opiate, opium because people (bloggers) to be hooked after finding something that can make free pour what is in the imagination to be a lot of people around the world through the virtual world. Moreover, it is not just writing the blog personal experience but there are yearning for can improve the rank and made in our blog like so many people able to attract advertisers to serve ads on the blog. Because at the time of this blog to be the most effective media to advertise the money for their owners.
