Blog then developed to find the form in accordance with the wishes of the author or the blogger. Blog which was originally a person's “track record” on the Internet, which links to websites visited and considered attractive, then became much more interesting than a list of links. This is because the Blogger usually also do not forget to fasten their “smart” comments and even express their sarcasm on the link they make.

From the comments were usually blog then becomes a window that allows us to “peek” the contents of the head and the daily life of its creator. Blogs are an easy way to get to know someone's personality Blogger. The topics of what she likes and she did not like, what did he think of the links that he chose, what the response on an issue.

Thousands Blog then appeared and each choose a different topic, starting from how to be good parents, hobbies watching movies, political topics, health, sex, sports, comic books and everything else. Even Blogger is blog about weird stuff sold on Ebay auction site called.

Cameron Barrett wrote on his blog an essay titled “Anatomy of a Weblog” which explains the theme of the Blog. Blogs are often highly focused on a unique subject that is a basic topic and / or a concept that brings together the themes of the blog. Simply put the topic of a blog is the blogger's territory it without any editors or bosses to intervene, as crazy as any theme can usually be found in line with the increasing emergence of Blogs on the Internet.
