What is a blog?  The word blog is a shortened form for Web log.  It's a type of Web site with regular entries and commentary on a particular subject.  A typical blog combines text with links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. 

Blog usage began to spread in 1999 and by 2008 blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112 million blogs.
