THE LANGUAGE OF BLOGGING
хубаво е да имам "под ръка" терминологията
RSS (REALLY SIMPLE SYNDICATION)
A way of handling the latest items posted
on a website, especially suited for blogs
because it alerts users whenever their
favourite blogs are updated. It can also
“syndicate” content by allowing other
websites (simply and automatically) to
reproduce all or part of a site’s content.
Spreading fast, especially on media websites.
RSS AGGREGATOR
Software or online service allowing a
blogger to read an RSS feed, especially the
latest posts on his favourite blogs. Also
called a reader, or feedreader.
RSS FEED
The file containing a blog’s latest posts. It is
read by an RSS aggregator/reader and
shows at once when a blog has been updated.
TRACKBACK
A way that websites can communicate
automatically by alerting each other that an
item posted on a blog refers to a previous
item.
WEB DIARY
A blog.
WIKI
From the Hawaiian word “wikiwiki” (quick).
A website that can be easily and quickly
updated by any visitor. The word has also
come to mean the tools used to create a
wiki (wiki engines). Blogs and wikis have
some similarities but are quite different.

COMMENT SPAM
Like e-mail spam. Robot “spambots” flood
a blog with advertising in the form of bogus
comments. A serious problem that requires
bloggers and blog platforms to have tools
to exclude some users or ban some
addresses in comments.

all or part of its content available for posting

===================================
What are tags?
Tags
are short words and phrases used to organize your journal. When making
an entry, you can specify keyword tags for the entry. Then, if your
journal is using the S2 style system, you can display only the entries
with that particular tag.
