Which Blogging Website to Join or Not
Blogging is something that is very much in transition, as the new technologies appear every day and redefine what blogging is, what a blog is capable of doing, and what a blog should be doing. Although, for many years, blogging was defined as text based websites that kept records of days, similar to a day log on a ship. However, this started to change as the group of people who kept blogs became more diverse. The more bloggers began to explore the limits of the medium and of the technology that made it possible, the more the boundaries of what could be called a "blog" expanded.
