=BLOG= =***Know your AUP (Acceptable Use Policy)*** What is a blog???=

The term "weblog" was coined by Jorn Barger on December 17, 1997. The short form, "blog," was coined by Peter Merholz, who jokingly broke the word //web-log// into the phrase //we blog// in the sidebar of his blog Peterme.com in April or May of 1999.

The modern blog evolved from the online diary, where people would keep a running account of their personal lives. A blog is a web-publishing concept that enables anyone to publish information on the internet. Blogs have become a journalistic tool to publish news, ideas, rants, announcements, and ponderings very quickly.

Blogs have become highly effective ways to help students to become better writers.
