Blogging – How to Succeed 2
Thu ,21/01/2010Types
There is a wide variety in the types of blogs. Such differences may relate to either the subject material of the blog or the manner in which such content is presented or the style in which it is written. Consider the following:
Personal Blogs – This takes the form of a continuously updated diary or commentary, usually by an individual, and is the traditional, most widespreadly used type of blog. Such bloggers tend to put a lot of effort into their blog posts, which is another name for a blog entry, even if their posts are never read by anyone but themselves.
In this way, blogs often become more than just a way to relate to the outside world. In some cases, Blogging can emanate a sentimental quality. It is an accepted fact that few personal bloggers acquire fame and notoriety. However, some personal blogs develop a loyal following.
A specialised form of personal blog is that which is referred to as microblogging. This is an extremely detailed style of blogging since it seeks to capture a particular moment in time and record it for posterity.
Other sites include Twitter, which is a free social networking and microblogging site. The benefit is that users can send and react to other users’ updates. These are known as Tweets, and are text-based posts up to 140 characters long.
Using a blog is much quicker than e-mailing since it represents immediate contact. In fact, this is a further extension of social media. When people make contact with others and share information by means of the internet, then this represents a form of social media.
