Throughout my readings, viewings and mult-media discoveries I have been exposed to numerous blogging websites. I thought it would worthwhile looking at how some of these websites perceive and define blogging. Consequently I have listed below a couple of extracts from online blogging websites: Salon Blogs
Salon Blogs:
What’s a blog?”A blog, or weblog, is a personal Web site updated frequently with links, commentary and anything else you like. New items go on top and older items flow down the page. Blogs can be political journals and/or personal diaries; they can focus on one narrow subject or range across a universe of topics. The blog form is unique to the Web — and highly addictive.”

About Blogmeister
Perhaps one of the most fascinating tools that has emerged from the Internet cloud in recent years is the Blog. A shortening of the term Web log, the Blog is an online publishing tool that enables people to easily publish their loves, passions, dislikes, peeves, discoveries, and insights.
Thousands of teachers have discovered the value of classroom blogging, both as an avenue for their communications, but also as a tool for giving voice to what their students are learning and how they are learning.
Class Blogmeister is one of several blogging engines that have been developed specifically for classroom use. You are welcome to explore the writings of teachers and students alike.
Blogbeat:
About The Blog Beat
The Blog Beat is a site dedicated to the art of blogging. While we’ll focus on all parts of blogging such as writing and monetizing, there will be an emphasis on marketing and promotion. Many sites breach the subject of marketing & promotion, but few really delve deeply into the subject and I think we can provide killer detail and information in that area. We love comments, questions and input from our readers so please let your voice be heard!

A very well designed and managed blog. I am going to use this as an example with my own PGCE students.
