Nowadays, a lot of people share their lives, thoughts and feelings on a blog with words and pictures.
These people are called ‘bloggers’, and their readers can leave comments on each blog entry.
They can exchange information on the Internet conveniently.
However, the word ‘blog’ did not appear until April or May of 1999. At that time, a man called
Peter Merholz broke the word ‘weblog’ into two words, ‘we’ and blog’. Since then, the word ‘blog’
has been used by people all over the world.
At first, blogs were only online personal diaries. However, we can now see numerous kinds of blogs
which talk about different things on the Internet, for example, travel, fashion, music, film and many
others. These blogs gather people who have the same interests, and publish information that they are
interested in.
