MIS Guide

https://themisguidesite.wordpress.com

Blogging is the process of creating an online text diary made

up of chronological entries that comment on everything from one’s

everyday life, to wine and food, or even computer problems.

Nowadays, people are using them because they represent an

easy way to communicate each other, share interesting facts and

comments about every type of topic, or just to write opinions and

articles about everything that comes to the writers’ mind.
