A blog (short for weblog) is a essentially a personal online journal that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption. Blogs are generally defined by their format: a series of entries posted to a single page in reverse-chronological order. 
Today, blogs have become very sophisticated and are often used for general business websites because of their ease of use – from setting up, to designing and especially to updating. People with limited or no experience in HTML or website development can use a blog as it has similar functions to that of popular word processing software that most people use in the world.
In fact, this website uses a blog structure. Blog tools, WordPress being the most popular, are now very powerful and offer many options and plugins allowing them to perform many diverse functions, where previously special tools or website software was required.

Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or reflect the purpose or themse of the web site that hosts the blog and the blog content. Topics sometimes include brief philosophical musings, commentary, and other social issues, and links to other sites the author favors, especially those that support a point being made on a post.
If desired, blogs allow comments to be posted. The author of a blog is often referred to as a blogger, and many blogs syndicate their content to subscribers using RSS, a popular content distribution tool.
