About "blogs" in general

A. The word “blog” originally comes from the term “web log” or “weblog”. Peter Merholz was the one who turned that term to “we blog” and then “Blog”.

B. The writer might object to a book about blogs because they are totally different things. The purpose of the book is to stay in the story unlikely blogs, which their function is to go beyond their own blog. Also there are much illegal or offensive information written in blogs that can’t be posted on books. Finally, one of the most important reasons is that blog is all about links and it is not possible to put all those information from different areas into one book.

C. Blogs these days became handful to everyone who uses internet since there’re many services to make up your own page. Also the purpose of the blog in general has changed. Now a days, most people do blog to be linked rather than to give people useful links.

D. I might prefer to read a blog rather than a book because it has many links to more information.　But one may need to doubt the objectivity of a blog because in a blog you can write whenever and whatever way you want to without saying your name. The information might be biased.

E. Looking for Catharsis

F. Blogs that mention about Ishmael by Daniel Quinn.
