I found your comment "where people discuss, members make posts to inform other users on their opinion of a certain topic of their choice" very useful and it gave me a better idea about what a blog is.
ReplyDeleteBlogs arnt just about discussing topics, there are forums dedicated to that sort of thing on the internet, blogs are mainly just for sharing information of interest
ReplyDeleteThat´s not necessarily right as forums and blogs can be used for the same things however forums are more for disputing problems or for voice your opinion. A blog´s primary function is to post the information, its secondary function is for members of the blog to discuss the topic so that they can voice their opinions. Forums and blogs have similar basic functions.
