 "A blog (a truncation of
"weblog") is
an informational website consisting of discrete, often informal
diary-style text entries also known as posts.
Posts are typically displayed in reverse
chronological order so
that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web
page.
In the 2000s, blogs were often the work of a single individual,
occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or
topic. In the 2010s, multi-author blogs (MABs) emerged, featuring the
writing of multiple authors, sometimes professionally edited. MABs from
newspapers, other media
outlets,
universities, think
tanks, advocacy
groups,
and similar institutions account for an increasing quantity of blog traffic.
The rise of Twitter and other "microblogging"
systems helps integrate MABs and single-author blogs into the news
media. Blog can
also be used as a verb, meaning to
maintain or add content to a blog"
