Weblogging has becoming one of
the places for people to have a freedom of speech. People all around the world
tends to use the weblog to express themselves like publishing their personal
updates. Not only that, company and businesses people has also use the weblog to
have a better recognition and gain a better awareness among people.
In other words, there are
actually several types of blogs on the website. According to Arends (2012),
blog is one of the best ways to keep your friends and associates updated on the
events in your life. Arend also came out with a list of sort of general type of
blogs.
Personal blog which also the most commonly used is a blog that
every individuals use it as a diary or a journal like posting one’s feeling and
expressing them freely.
Cultural blog is a blog where people have a discussion on the arts,
music, as well as to share their own culture views around.
Business blog is definitely help in promoting the type of businesses
or discussing on the management also the updates on stock market and the
economics.
There are also many other blogs
like science blogs, moblog, educational
blog, forum blog that the author further discussed on it.
In my point of view, Arends
(2012) has just generally providing the type of blog and the used of the blogs without
going more in-depth on it. On the other hand, Herzog (2011), discuss the
importance of taxonomy blogs. He stated that it is important to have the
attribute to a category and a tag. For example, in a blog, a category might be
a media and the tags might be the blogging.
