Blog Vs Web Site

What is the difference between writing blog and web site?
We can create anything on blog! We can post anything.
So why do we need web site?
Can I say that web site is for business use only because own business may need their own trade mark?

we cant creat everything on blog...! blog is the very little subset of the whole web technolgies. the main purpose of the blog is idea exchange.. not presentation of the information...so they dont need other features....

Welcome to AMERICAN MOSAIC, in VOA Special English.

But first, we report about blogs.

Blogs

HOST:

Do you know what a "blogger" is? Well, here is Shep O'Neal to tell us.

ANNCR:

A "blogger" is a person who writes on an Internet computer Web site called a "blog." The word "blog" is a short way of saying Web log, or personal Web site. Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.

There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information and ideas to the many people who read them. They contain links to other Web sites. And they provide a place for people to write their ideas and react to the ideas of others.

A research company called Perseus has studied more than three-thousand Web logs. It says that blogs are most popular with teenage girls. They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their lives. The study also says that more than one-hundred-thousand bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.

However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas. For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs. And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.

At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended. Last week, blogging leader Dave Winer closed his free blog service, weblogs.com. He says the site became too costly to continue. He started the blog four years ago, and thousands of people had written on it. They are now upset because they did not know that the site was closing.

One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca's Pocket. Rebecca Blood created the Web site in nineteen-ninety-nine. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called "The Weblog Handbook." It has been translated into four languages so far.

Mizz Blood says Rebecca's Pocket gets about thirty-thousand visitors a month. She writes about anything and everything -- politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how to prevent people from stealing money from on-line bank accounts.

Thanks a lot for explaination about blog.
How about Web site???
What does that mean?
When we write web site, first thing we need is URL ( domain name)???
I am now confusing whether we need one of the programming languages ( such as Java, VB, ....) when we create web site???

pls discuss more to clear my thoughts. Thanks in advance!!!

Well!
Web site means "a place in the web u can visit", i think.
'Cos "www" stands for "World Wide Web".

First thing to create a web site is to write html codes, not URL.
If you don't know how to write codes, you can use web gui softwares, like dreamweaver and front page.
You can decide the domain name after u create.

To use some special tags in web sites, you have to use some programming languages, like java script.

Thanks a lot for sharing ur knowledge, Ko Min Zar Ni...
If u have own web site, share us...
I will try to write web site if I were free one day...
At that day, I hope u may give me more advices...

first of all, we have to know that the internet web is not only to display and store the information you want, but also to make your business things.
so will you let them the others to steal your business data?
if you use the free available blog, all the coding and services are provided by owner so your data will be easily stolen by the owner and then they can sell your data to your business competatior.
So, most of the online services never use the services provided by others.
They provide their own security system and own services by their way.

more over you can write the server web site by means of code behind, i.e., no internet user can see the code by means of right click and view source.

i may wrong,
pls tell your thinks
thanks
