MICROBLOGGING
Microblogging is a broadcast medium that exists in the form
of blogging. A microblog differs from a traditional blog in that its content is
typically smaller in both actual and aggregated file size. Microblogs
"allow users to exchange small elements of content such as short
sentences, individual images, or video links".[1] These small messages are
sometimes called microposts.[2][3]
As with traditional blogging, microbloggers post about
topics ranging from the simple, such as "what I'm doing right now,"
to the thematic, such as "sports cars." Commercial microblogs also
exist to promote websites, services and products, and to promote collaboration
within an organization.
Some microblogging services offer features such as privacy
settings, which allow users to control who can read their microblogs, or
alternative ways of publishing entries besides the web-based interface. These
may include text messaging, instant messaging, E-mail, digital audio or digital
video.
Twitter is an online social networking and microblogging
service that enables users to send and read short 140-character text messages,
called "tweets". Registered users can read and post tweets, but
unregistered users can only read them. Users access Twitter through the website
interface, SMS, or mobile device app.[10] Twitter Inc. is based in San
Francisco and has offices in New York City, Boston, Austin and Detroit.[11]
Twitter was created in March 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Evan
Williams, Biz Stone and Noah Glass and by July 2006, the site was launched. The
service rapidly gained worldwide popularity, with 500 million registered users
in 2012, who posted 340 million tweets per day. The service also handled 1.6
billion search queries per day.[12][13][14] In 2013 Twitter was one of the ten
most-visited websites, and has been described as "the SMS of the
Internet."[7][15]
WORLD WIDE WEB
"WWW" and "The web" redirect here. For
other uses of WWW, see WWW (disambiguation). For other uses of web, see Web
(disambiguation).
The World Wide Web (abbreviated as WWW or W3,[1] commonly
known as the web) is a system of interlinked hypertext documents that run on
and are accessed via the Internet. With a web browser, one can view web pages
that may contain text, images, videos, and other multimedia and navigate
between them via hyperlinks.
Tim Berners-Lee, a British computer scientist and former
CERN employee,[2] is considered the inventor of the web.[3] On March 12,
1989,[4] he wrote a proposal for what would eventually become the World Wide
Web.[5] The 1989 proposal was meant for a more effective CERN communication
system but Berners-Lee eventually realised the concept could be implemented
throughout the world.[6] Berners-Lee and Belgian computer scientist Robert
Cailliau proposed in 1990 to use hypertext "to link and access information
of various kinds as a web of nodes in which the user can browse at
will",[7] and Berners-Lee finished the first website in December of that
year.[8] The first test was completed around 20 December 1990 and Berners-Lee
reported about the project on the newsgroup alt.hypertext on 7 August 1991.[9]
WHAT IS BLOG?
A blog (a truncation of the expression web log)[1] is a
discussion or informational site published on the World Wide Web and consisting
of discrete entries ("posts") typically displayed in reverse
chronological order (the most recent post appears first).
A majority are interactive, allowing visitors to leave
comments and even message each other via GUI widgets on the blogs, and it is
this interactivity that distinguishes them from other static websites.[2] In
that sense, blogging can be seen as a form of social networking service.
Indeed, bloggers do not only produce content to post on their blogs, but also
build social relations with their readers and other bloggers.[3] There are
high-readership blogs which do not allow comments, such as Daring Fireball.
Many blogs provide commentary on a particular subject;
others function as more personal online diaries; others function more as online
brand advertising of a particular individual or company. A typical blog
combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media
related to its topic. The ability of readers to leave comments in an
interactive format is an important contribution to the popularity of many
blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (art
blogs), photographs (photoblogs), videos (video blogs or "vlogs"),
music (MP3 blogs), and audio (podcasts). Microblogging is another type of
blogging, featuring very short posts. In education, blogs can be used as
instructional resources. These blogs are referred to as edublogs.
How to Start a Blog on Blogger
Blogger is an online service owned by Google that publishes single or
multi-user blogs created entirely by the user. The service has quickly
become the preferred choice of many novice bloggers and is one of the
easiest methods of creating and publishing a blog for free.
If you are unfamiliar with the service, this article will teach you how to set up an account and create a blog on Blogger.com.
