How and why to blog: advice and tips created for the Social Enterprise Ambassadors programme.

2. What’s a blog? “ A blog (from web log ) is a website where entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs and web pages. Readers can also often leave comments, making blogs more interactive than normal websites.”
