How
To Create A Blog
by:
Christos Varsamis
Blogs are more permanent
than posts to an online discussion list, more dynamic than older-style
home pages. They are more personal than traditional journalism, and
definitely more public than diaries. A blog is often a mixture of what is
happening in a person's life and what is happening on the Web, a kind of
hybrid diary site. So, there are as many unique types of blogs as there
are people.
Blogs enable interaction
and invite others to reward a person’s creative effort with feedback. They
weave new social networks, introducing people with common passions.
Another reason why one should start blogging is dissemination of
"micro-opinions" important to a small audience – opinions that would never
make it in newspapers.
Weblogs, definitely, are
the mavericks of the online world. Two of its greatest strengths are their
ability to filter and disseminate information to a widely dispersed
audience, and their position outside the mainstream of mass media.
The XHTML family can
accommodate extensions through XHTML modules and techniques to develop new
XHTML-conforming modules. These modules permit the combination of existing
and new feature sets when developing content and when designing new user
agents.
With so many different ways
to access the Internet, the XHTML family is designed keeping in mind the
general user agent interoperability. Through document profiling mechanism,
servers, proxies, and user agents are able to create best effort content
transformation. This language is both RSS and XML conforming. The content
can be readily viewed, edited, and validated with standard XML tools.
XHTML documents can utilize applications (e.g. scripts and applets) that
rely upon either the HTML Document Object Model or the XML Document Object
Model.
InstaBlog

InstaBlog appeared as a result of two things: responding to the simplest
possible way to maintain a weblog, and trying out the extremely cool Perl
MSN IM client. InstaBlog functions in the following manner: it is run as a
background process on a machine with Internet access. With its own
Passport identification it is constantly logged into the MSN instant
messenger service.

OpenJournal is a completely Web-based interface. The software’s features
include: automated file creation; automated index updating; editing of all
files through a Web-based interface; entries with or without titles and
time posted; automated archiving based on a weekly or monthly format. All
done through ordinary text files and no additional perl modules are needed
to run it. Basically, the software allows the users to keep an online
journal, customize and configure it. All needed to do after installation
is to write in it from time to time.
