The term "blog" was coined by Jorn Barger December 17, 1997. The short form of the word 'blog' was coined by Peter Merholz. Evan Williams used a "blog" as both a noun and a verb, which led to the creation of the term "blogger."
Blog – it's a page in Internet, there you can keep a diary. You can write your planes, thoughts, share some events, videos and music with your friends. It's a good way to find people with similar interests.
When I was younger I had a blog. There I wrote my thoughts, dreams, interesting stories, funny situations in my life, ect. My friends also had own page and we commented our "notes". It was like a social network for us :) nowadays I understand that it was useless because, in my opinion, blog is created for really important things like distance learning or bulletins.
A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is “blogging” and someone who keeps a blog is a “blogger.”
