What is a blog anyway? Well, blogs are basically journals that are available on the web. The process of updating a blog is called "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger." Blogs are updated regularly with a "posting" or new message. Blogs discuss a wide range of topics. Some blogs include commentary on current events in a specific arena, while others carry on a political discussion. Others are a series of personal musings. Dan Gilmour, author of We the Media notes: "What the best blogs tend to have in common is voice -- they are clearly written by human beings with genuine human passion." Interested in library or librarian blogs? Take a look at some of these found at Internet Public Library.
