Blog basics
For the uninitiated, blogs (or weblogs) work like this:
The most recent posts appear at the top of the page. And at the bottom of every entry are two links:
鈥 "Permalink" allows you to bookmark a particular post, or to send it by e-mail to a friend
鈥 "Comments" invites you to offer your reaction to that entry, or read those of others
Comments are what set a blog apart from a traditional column because they create an immediate dialogue between the audience and author.
鈥 鈥淏ookmark with..鈥 allows you to submit a post to your favourite community news-aggregation site, such as , which ranks stories and links via a user-based ranking system.
