What is blogging ? What are its advantages and disadvantages ?

A blog refers to an online journal where entries are posted and the activity of updating or writing a blog is called blogging.

The advantages of blogging are:

1. It enables us to write down our thoughts on anything that interests us.
2. It is easy to set up and doesn't need much technical knowledge.
3. It is easy and quick to update or add new posts.
4. People can leave comments on our blog.
5. If we want to read other people's blogs there are literally millions to choose from.

The disadvantages of blogging are:

1. Whatever we publish is available for everyone to see. If we write a post in anger we might regret later.
2. Personal blogs may be biased or contain inaccurate information.
3. Blogs can be time-consuming. Finding time to write regular updates can become a chore.
4. People may leave rude or inappropriate comments.
5. There are many very dull blogs around. We may have to look at many before we find some worth reading.
