What is a Blog?

Will Richardson’s videohttp://campus.belmont.edu/chenowit/dragonstale/WebLoggingSmall.mov

A blog (or weblog) is a website in which items are posted on a regular basis and displayed with the newest at the top. Like other media, blogs often focus on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news. Some blogs function as online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. Since its appearance in 1995, blogging has emerged as a popular means of communication, affecting public opinion and mass media around the world. [1]

Page 26: Digital Students @Analog Schools

Aggregator

Aggregators reduce the time and effort needed to regularly check websites of interest for updates, creating a unique information space or "personal newspaper."

An aggregator is able to subscribe to a feed, check for new content at user-determined intervals, and retrieve the content. The content is sometimes described as being "pulled" to the subscriber, as opposed to "pushed" with email or IM.

Unlike recipients of some "pushed" information, the aggregator user can easily unsubscribe from a feed.
