Basics (Introduction Essay)

A stating of the basics from Brins



Now, before we go any further with the "BLOG", I feel it should be addressed that I'm more or less completely inexperienced with the hosting of any form of web-page, so I am what many "BLOGGERS" would call a "newbie", but we've all got to start somewhere. So I'm starting here.

Now, for any budding "BLOGGERS" out there, I'm just as confused as you. Rome wasn't built in a day, as they say, and neither would a "BLOG" be, but I'll try to explain what it's all about.

Basically, this "BLOG" is what you would call a journal of events. It's just a series of statements made by me, relating to whatever topic I like. The "archive" - which will be on the screen somewhere - is basically the list of all the aforementioned statements which have been made on this "BLOG", categorised by the dates at which they were entered. So by clicking on a range of dates (say, using the American dating system, '04.1.04 - 04.8.04'), you can view all the statements made in that time-span. At least, I think that's the case.

So, for now, that's really all there is to it. Maybe later on I'll learn how to put more advanced stuff in the "BLOG", but until then, I'm quite happy with it the way it is.

Goodbye, and have a nice day  ¶ 4:37 pm
