Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries, often updated daily and reflecting the personality of the author. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), audio (podcasting) or content published from a mobile phone (moblog). Micro-blogging is another type of blogging which consists of blogs with very short posts. Style information: This term should not be capitalised.

It has been said many many times that the Japanese are efficient. Today, Day 01 of the iSummit, I could do with a healthy dose of efficiency to bolster the headache incurred at the hand of the Shot Bar&#8217;s skilled shaker of an 800 Yen Martini.</p> <p>The iSummit kicked off with a pro-active presentation and welcome introduction from Heather Ford, diving straight into global issues and the scope, the urgent need for open strategies to address them. She was also quite direct about the global instrumentalities and institutions that have been largely ineffective in dealing with the very real problems we face&#8230; climate change, poverty, land use.</p> Freedom of expression All Regions commons Wed, 30 Jul 2008 07:16:57 +0100 ag 6553 at http://www.apc.org
