"... a weblog is defined, these days, by its format: a frequently updated webpage with date entries, new ones placed on top... The progenitors of the weblog movement adopted this format as a matter of convenience, so that visitors could instantly see their latest update, and whether it had been made a week, a day or an hour ago."
"... links with commentary, updated frequently..."
"Since the earliest weblogs had required at least a rudimentary level of coding skill, the people who made them tended to be computer programmers and webdesigners."
"When software developers set out to create tools to help people manage weblogs, it was natural that they would focus on the site's format rather than their function."
"Once literally anyone could make a weblog, literally anyone did... Just as email made us all writers, weblogs made all of us publishers."
after the weblogs, the web is now a two way medium.
1999 > introduction of BLOGGER
The definition of Blog has gone:
... from 'a list of links with commentary and personal asides' to ' a website that is updated frequently, with new material posted at the top of the page'.
Rebecca Blood - We've got blog.
"Typically, a weblog is a small website, usually maintained by one person that is updated on a regular basis and has a high concentration of repeat visitors. Weblogs often are highly focused around a singular subject, and underlying theme or unifying conpcept."
Cameron Barrett - Anatomy of a weblog - We've got blog.
