What is Blogging?Blog posts have a subject, header and bodyPosts are actually arranged in reverse

chronological order, which means that when you visit a blog on the web, the latest story will appear at the top of the website.

Blog posts most usually have comments - a way that readers can respond to what's been said. Blogging invites conversation.

Blog posts have a time and date stamp - so that readers know how recent the post is.

Good Blogging assumes you will write something new at least once a day
