So, What Is A Blog?

Some of you have asked the above question, so here is some info. "Blog" is short for "Weblog" which is "internet-speak" meaning "an online journal." Are there enough "" in that sentence for you? :)
Here are a few things to notice about this "blog":

  • If you click on a dark red word or phrase you will be taken to another web page containing information about that subject. For example, if you click on the following word, Blog, you will be taken to an online encyclopedia that explains that term in detail. If you click on the title to this book, Desiring God, you will be taken to a page where you can order the book.
  • On the right side of this page you should see a list of "links." If you click on one of those you will be taken to the webpage for that ministry, an online bible, etc.
  • If you click on the word "comment" below each "post" you can add your thoughts or comments for everyone to see by following the directions on the page that comes up when you click that link.
  • If you have private comments you can always send me an email by clicking here: Mitch.
  • Also, the reason you have to type in all those jumbled letters to leave a comment is because people have created computer programs which automatically go to blogs and leave comments which are not always "wholesome." So, it's worth the trouble!
