What is it?

A blog is a website in which items are posted on a regular basis and displayed in reverse chronological order. The term blog is a shortened form of weblog or web log. A blog comprises text, hypertext, images, and links (to other web pages and to video, audio and other files).

Pro

1. Is free if one signs up with blog service providers such as blogger, wordpress etc
2. Does not require technical upgrades etc so one does not need any programmer assistance in using this tool
3. Is easy to use and does not require any prior technical expertise

Cons

1. Limited features - can not really start new thread / article
2. Does not allow for depth i.e. does not store pages
3. Can not have different formats: eg: a different page for a member profile and for an organisation etc
4. Does not easily support editing / drafting by different people
5. Is not interactive
   • There's commenting feature in blogs. That does make some interactive to some extend. - Anjesh.Tuladhar 10:15, 21 Mar 2007 (CET)
