A Basic Blog Description

A blog is a public online document where people can voice their opinions, thoughts and feelings in whatever way they like, but they must bear the consequenves, going to jail or receiving a fine, if they defame someone, post racist comments or do anything against the law through the blog. The posts, which are often written in first person and in informal tone and language, can be commented on by readers. The posts, being in reversed chronological order, appear with the latest entry at the top so that readers know that a new entry has been posted and does not have to scroll up and down to find the latest post. Lastly, bloggers can insert all kinds of multimedia in their blog to have more interaction with readers. Some examples of multimedia are pictures, music, videos and chatboxes.
