Why Blog?

As blogging becomes more and more popular, many people are asking the question, "Why blog?"

There is a big difference between using a blog and using a website. If you use a blog, you will have more collaboration through commenting. You will also get blogs from professionals, struggling artists, and students all about the topic, all with a different view on a certain subject. On the other hand, a website may appear as a more structured technology, providing information but not allowing for collaboration easily and efficiently as you find with blogs. You can also find many different types of websites for the same subject; however, it may be hard to tell which information is accurate or not on the websites. And yes, although the same is true about blogging, reading a 'blog' should tell the reader that the information provided is the blogger's personal view.
