 | | Weblogs, typically, are personal Web sites operated by individuals who compile chronological lists of links to stuff that interests them, interspersed with information, editorializing and personal asides. |
 | | A good weblog is updated often, in a kind of real-time improvisation, with pointers to interesting events, pages, stories and happenings elsewhere on the Web. |
 | | Since weblogs are usually one-person operations with no editorial hierarchy or institution to say "no" or impose a house style, they tend to embody the strengths and weaknesses of any labor-of-love operation: They're often impassioned and sometimes sloppy; they frequently surprise and just as frequently lose focus. |
