Blog

A blog is a web journal regularly updated by an individual or a public or private organization (company, association, etc.). Written news posts are systematically dated, and every visitor to the blog has the opportunity to react in real time by adding comments. Initially, the blog was mainly "navel-gazing" in inspiration, a sort of diary in which the blogger recounted his life, his memories, his vacations, his moods...

Today, the blog has become a truly collaborative communication tool. It features high-quality individual and collective contributions ( cf. Surveiller les blogs des experts", Management stratégique de l'information , Éditions Weka).
