Blogging refers to the practice of updating an online journal. These can be hosted on one's personal website or a service such as Blogger. Bloggers are able to post blogs which will usually be displayed on the front page, with recent blogs towards the top and older blogs towards the bottom or on other pages. There is usually no limit to how much or how little one must blog. Blogs may be long or short. Longer blogs usually are posted on websites such as Blogger, whereas shorter blogs, known as microblogs, are hosted on websites such as Twitter.
Blogs can be shared by multiple people posting on one blog, whether it is with one account or via multiple accounts. They may be about any topic one wishes to write about. Blogs needn't be pertaining to one particular topic nor a myriad of topics. They aren't required to be entirely grammatically correct.
Blogs can be made public, private, or only viewable to the bloggers themselves. People who read the blog or find interest in it may choose to "follow" the blog by subscribing to email updates or RSS feeds pertaining to the blog. Some blogs have hundreds of thousands of followers, some have no followers whatsoever.
Blogs must obey the terms of service agreements of the service hosting them, and may be deleted by the service if they violate those terms.
