i started off today by adding bands to my friends list then later i'm going to start joining groups and start participating some in them to get to know some people the ni will go through the groups members lists and invite people to be my friends.

Then as i get more and more friends i will promote my blog with bulletins and such.

What is a Blog?

I was doing a little research on the web this week and came across this info and thought it might be useful to some one.

Blog is short for weblog. A blog is a type of website, but differ from the usual site style, by having these characteristics:

• An informal, personal, ongoing diay-type commentary by an individual: either about his/her life, or opinion/news about a specific topic
• Most blog entries are plain-text mini-articles, though pictures, audio and even video clips can be incorporated too.
• Latest blog entry appears near the top of the front page with previous entries below it in date order.
• Blog entries are usually short; longer posts are sometimes split so the balence of the item is on a new page.
• Readers often have the oppurtunity to add their own comments about a blog entry, or even respond to other peoples feedback
• Readers can opt to recieve an alert by RSS every time a new entry is posted on the blog
• Most blogs are created and updated through a web-based interface system such as Blogger. No technical Knowledge is needed to start a blog, though technically-minded people can install software on their servers to create more sophisticated and customizable blogs.

I hope that this info has helped you become more intouch with what blogs are and how they work. They are really very interesting.
