- The modern blog evolved from the online diary, where people would keep a
running account of their personal lives. Most such writers called
themselves diarists, journalists, or journalers.

Usenet, and BBS. (bulletin board systems)
- By 2001, blogging was enough of a phenomenon that how-to manuals began
to appear, primarily focusing on technique; Established schools of journalism
began researching blogging and noting the differences between journalism
and blogging. - (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog#1983.E2.80.931990_.28Pre-HTTP.29)

writing. You could have the kids write about a topic and then have
them respond to each other, in a writer's conference type idea.
- Here is my student's blog:
- http://www.maddyinfrance.blogspot.com/
- She is writing letters as her own way of communicating on top of the
blog assignments.
