  1. A blog is an online journal. It just talks about any topic the author has chosen. They're not reports or essays, they're just there to show someone's opinion a topic. I have never written a blog before or read one. I would create a blog on my personal views on life and people and how there is still hope for those who think their life is completely over.

  2. A blog is a type of free write. Usually it is posted over the internet by someone who would like to share information with other people. I have never written a blog before, or at least I don’t think I have. I have read blogs before over internet websites. I do not regularly read blogs. I sometimes read them when I am on social sites. If I were to write a blog I am pretty sure that I will write about football. I would talk about football because I can talk about it for hours and because I would like to keep all football fans caught up on what’s going on.

    A blog is a “web log” or a sort of public log in which a person or organization talks or writes about almost any topic possible. The log must be entered numerous times and entered regularly. No, I haven’t written a blog before. I have read a couple blogs that relate to either a person’s daily/personal life or computer tech stuff but only when I’m looking for specific information or really bored. No, I don’t regularly read any blogs. I would probably only read a blog when I’m really bored and have nothing else to do. I would create a blog about either my life and just comment/reflect on my daily life and stuff. I don’t think I have a interesting enough background of anything like politics to create a blog like that.

    A blog is something you write about on the internet that you update frequently. I have never blogged or read a blog before. I do not read blogs on a regular basis. I would create a blog about sports or what happens in my everyday life

  6. A blog is a comment submitted by a person based on his/her opinion regarding the matter being discussed; a personal point of view.
    During some of my classes I’ve been required to write such blogs. I, too, have wrote some of my own and read some of these in other websites.
    I usually read some political blogs when I read the news online, as well as when I find something interesting to talk about.
    I’d probably create a blog account about something of my interest, like books or stories, for example.

  7. A blog is an internet site where people can post their ideas for others to see. People go on blogs when they want incite on something. I do not think I have ever written nor read a real blog before. If I did read blogs it would probably about movie or restaurant reviews. Another type of blog I think I would be interested in reading is a celebrity blog. If I had my own blog it would be about my life, the places I go, and the people in it. I would give my opinion about places I go and probably use the blog as a type of diary or journal.

  8. I really do not know what a blog is. I have an idea of what a blog is because I use to read them on MySpace. By all I know is they are people’s ideas posted on a page for everyone to see and read. I personally have never written a blog but I have read a couple to hear other people’s ideas on common questions, solutions, and fun stuff like that. Other than getting information from blogs I do not read them for fun. My friends all post up blogs on a regular basis. When I am over at their house they like to get on sites and post blogs about people and ideas. If I was to create a blog I would write about stuff that interests me 1st. Like a post wanting people’s opinions on me joining track and field, or if Daybearkers was a good movie because I saw it over the weekend.

    Usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Others function as more personal online diaries. I have never written a blog. I read a blogs before when my friends showed me. I don’t really read blogs but sometimes. I only read blogs when my friends show me. If I can start a blog, I will write about my life and what I like. Also, what I like to do at most times.

  13. To my opinion a blog is website that is for users to write their thoughts and feelings about a certain topic. I have written many blogs before and read my friend's blogs. I have read them every single day, either after school or during class when I am done with my work. I would create a blog about my thoughts and days at school and my morals.

  21. To me a blog is something, or a web site that people write stuff on about almost anything. Or when I watch TV, or Vh1 or MTV, that’s probably were I hear most about blogs… mostly talking behind people that they don’t really know, to me it is portrayed as something negative. I have never written a blog, or read a blog. I don’t regularly read any blogs, but some may be interesting. If I had my own blog I probably would write about regular stuff that happens to at home, or personal things, and would want to be able to see if anyone can relate.

  25. 1) A blog is a web log, where people post excerpts of their life into a couple paragraphs. Some people do it for fun, some people do it looking for sympathy, some people wish to inform the world (like with politics), or some people might just be bored and want something to do.
    2) I have never written a blog before, because I don’t want to inform the world of everything and anything going on in my life. I read some blogs that I find on Google if I get extremely bored, but outside of that I try to avoid blogs as much as I can.
    3) I do not read any blog regularly because my conscience would make me feel like a stalker. I’m very defensive when it comes to my privacy, so I find that it’s only fair that I give other people their privacy, too.
    4) If I had to, I would make a blog journeying my road in a video game and trace my steps from day one to the final day. Although some people are totally against games and its unhealthiness towards the eye, I find them good entertainment, and sharing my opinion (serious or not) might help some other gamers find their way through or choose whether or not to buy the game to start with.

  26. A blog is a way to write and share feelings, opinions and critique on many different subjects in our culture. A blog can provide info to people that are looking for an insight on new things. I have never written a blog before, but I have read many of them. I find blogs useful to find new music. Bloggers provide reviews and opinions on new music and also give suggestions to artists that are similar to those of my liking. I read blogs about once a week. Whenever I am in the mood to find new music, or read opinions on certain subjects, I’ll look them up on the internet and sometimes the best results are bloggers that express their opinions on the matter. If I were to create a blog, I would probably write new things that I have experienced and give my opinion about them, such as music, books movies, food, etc. In my blog I would definitely include pictures in it to make it more visually attracting to the reader.

  29. A blog is a type of writing that people use to express themselves. A blog is basically like a journal posted on the internet. I’ve wrote and read blogs before. I have a tumblr account, which I use on a daily basis. Since I use tumblr on a daily basis, I do read blogs every day. I like to read the blogs my friends post. I also love to see those fashion pictures. My blogs are mostly about what I did that day or anything that comes up from the top of my head. I also blog about how I’m feeling that moment. If I can create a blog account for one specific topic, I would blog about the latest technology, fashion, etc.

  30. A blog is an online way of expressing your interests, your opinions on other topics, and other things. Lots of people blog today to get their ideas out.
    I haven’t written a blog before, but I have written online journals, which is kind of like blogging and I have written stories online too. I have read blogs before, just never written one.
    I don’t really read blogs on a regular basis, but I could if I wanted to I guess. I’m not really into blogs, I like chatting on my instant messenger.
    I would probably create a personal blog, mostly about my interests and a bunch of random rants when I’m upset about something. Other than that, I’m not sure what I would blog about.

    A place where you can write about your thoughts or about something you want people to see such as personal things. A blog is two words such as “ WEB AND LOG”. I have never used a blog before or ever read a blog until now. No I have never read a blog. I didn’t even know what a blog was until I went into computer keyboarding. I would probably create a blog about soccer since I like soccer a lot. I would post things that are going on in the professional world of soccer.

    A blog in basically a contraction word for "web log." I think it is like a comment about someone or something. It can be about the news or something good or bad about someone’s personality.
    I’ve written a blog about my day I think twice on MySpace before. I’ve read my friend’s blogs and the news blog on Yahoo about sports and the economy.
    I sometimes read the news blog that are posted on Yahoo and on MySpace from friends whenever I logged on to it.
    If I was to create a blog, it would mostly be about my life, the experiences that I have been through, and if I were to comment on someone else’s blog.

    A blog is a way to express your thoughts and ideas and share what you have written with other people. Blogs can be about any topic. It’s basically a diary or a journal that you post online. No, I haven’t written a blog before but I have read my friends blogs. She writes blogs and posts them online to share her thoughts with other people who are interested in reading them. I haven’t read any blogs recently, but I know that they are posted on Myspace and Facebooks. If I were to write a blog, it would be about how I’m feeling and other important things. I would blog about things happening at school.

  35. I am not very sure at what a bolg but I have an idea. I think that it is a place where a person can create their own web page type thing but like I said I am not to sure on what that is exactly. I have never had a blog because I don’t know what it is. Even though I don’t have a bolg or read them I have heard about them before but never understood what they really were. No I do not regularly read them but I am sure they would be very interesting to read. I am not sure what I would create a blog about but I am sure when I find out what exactly they are I will have many ideas.
