Gokul, use WordPress. It's under Add-ons. It's very easy to use and takes a few seconds to install.

What is a blog? I cannot answer this question directly but I can give you my blog address -----> http://edong.blogdrive.com/ - most entries are in Tagalog though but others are in English so you may understand some of it. Maybe it can give you one of the meaning of the so-called blogs.

See, that is where I differ from people. I actually think that a true "blog" is only a person's online journal, because it roots itself from the term "weblog", meaning it is an online account of the person's life. Now, companies have "blogs", as do TV shows and radio stations, and large nonprofit organizations. It's not a blog when that happens. It's a "brag". I still like them, it's just not quite the same. Whether you have a blog or a brag, have fun, and be sure to invite me.

Currently, MySpace is considered the trendiest blog yet. It is considered "crack" for 12 year olds, for some odd reason.

You have to setup a general topic and always update it. The topic must be interesting so that everyone wants to visit your blog and read it. Then get a domain for your blog. Now start to get affiliate programs banner/advertisements or adsense to earn cash.
