A little over two months ago, I wrote a post entitled “What is a Blog?”. Fortunately, two of my friends swiftly responded and raised their own definitions. So let’s hear for them.
“A blog is something where you chronologically put into account everything that you would like to feature in the world wide web. Interestingly, it reflects the personality of the author… coz he tends to speak out his/her mind about something. It is a personal account of the blogger i.e., life experiences, day to day events, his beliefs, and everything that works up in his head. It is usually updated daily…” - Our Journey To Forever
“Blog…for me is a personal diary of a blogger (the author) which is arranged chronologically according to his/her interest. It is one way of expressing his/her self to the public without hesitation and telling the world who he/she is and what’s in his/her mind. A new way of connecting people around the world and less expected gaining new friends or might be meeting someone and become your partner in life… In a wider understanding, BLOG is an art. Anybody can be an artist in so many ways… it could be in writing, graphic designing, digital imaging, videography and can be rational critic.” - Breggie Briggs
For some, it may sound weird that such question is being asked by a man who used to call himself a blogger. But then, the point is, not everybody reading our blogs is familiar with the term blog (am I right?). Actually, Darren Rowse himself wrote a post “What is a Blog?” to give a good jumpstart for those who aspire to be bloggers. In the first place, how will you will engage on something you don’t know (am I right again?).
I think, it’s enough for the very long introduction. The main reason why I decided to write this entry is to share with you a informative video that I watched in youtube.com which entitled “Blogs in Plain English”. Here it is:
Are you done watching? Okay, just don’t forget to leave your comments. Have a good day.
Joliber,
Formerly, a blog to me is simply a means to express myself and educate others. Now, I think i have to make it as a source of extra income. Mahirap ding magsulat ano. Kaya nga minsan dapat ding kumita tayo kahit konting konti lang. Buti nga may adsense na kayo ngayon eh. Up to now my application is pending. Hahahaha.

Yes Kuya Jessie, somehow, dapat we should monetize our blogs kahit pakonti-konti lang.. In my case, I’m happy getting few dollars for now, I’m still in the process of knowing the ins and outs of internet marketing.. I’m still studying how will I use my skills in software engineering to make it marketable in the blogosphere..
That’s why I use my blog to build good online relationship with fellow bloggers..I always believe in the near future, they will be my customers on softwares that I’m planning to develop..
Oo, medyo mahirap din talaga magsulat pero I think I should be more patient.. Sa adsense? Alam ko one week ata processing..
Hello there jolliber, Happy long vacation hopeyou find some eggs on the way… About adsense, ako its been 6months but the 100 payout lamit is still far from reach for me… need some traffic and good post… I think…

Having no financial earning from my blog, I consider more of an emotional, social and literary growth chart. It reminds me of the progress of my online being which is my only life outside of the hospital.
Wangbu’s last blog post..On a Posting Pause
Yeah, actually there are also other bloggers out there which consider blog as leeway of personal emotions only, they are just happy doing that.. And I think that sounds good, just enjoying online life..
