Most everyone has heard of blogging. You have probably gone to a blog to get information or look it over and thought you were on a website unless you saw something on it that referred to it as a blog.  A blog is like a web log. A person posts or writes on it about anything they choose. It can be personal or business or whatever the author wants. A blog is usually updated at frequent intervals.
A person may put tags on the posts so they will be grouped according to the subject of the post. Many people use the date option which shows what content was written on a particular month, day, and year.  Some merely write about their day to day lives.  Pictures and videos are nice to have on a blog as they add more interesting content. The blogger can write about anything he wishes to on his blog.
If you blog, it means you keep and maintain a blog and write content on it. The act of blogging has grown a lot with some bloggers making huge amounts of money from it. Blogs today are used for almost any type of internet project you can think of.
There are many kinds of blogs:
A blog for just friends and family
A blog for a corporation
Question blogging
Blogs for news, current events, music, or movies
Blogs just for videos, which is referred to as a vlog
A House blog
