A weblog or
blog site that allows a person to keep an online log to be used how they see fit. Places such as Livejournal can be considered similar to services that offer small parcels of online space for websites
like Geocities - where big-name bloggers often have their own custom
blog sites, others can get a Livejournal with no cost to them.
Livejournal is commonly used by its users to detail their daily lives, and a release from the stresses of such; much
like a more traditional, private journal. The exception is that these journals are open to everyone (or perhaps just a circle of
friends). This can create many problems, as Livejournals often become a method of conducting socialpolitics.
Livejournals and the ability to make your thoughts and feelings public are
indeed a seductive venture. If you're going to make a public
blog, though, be viewtiful about your entries. Entertain
people.
