The blog can be a corporate webpage that communicates directly with the reader, but more often is your own personal newspaper, reporting your take on the current events, on people in the news, on music, art, on just about everything. The latest comment appears on top of the page.
Some personal blogs are themed on a single subject, such as sailboats or chrysanthemums or Mexican vacations. But just as often they are simply online journals.
