blogging
Publishing personal posts
Blogging is the activity of writing and maintaining a blog—a website where entries appear in reverse chronological order, with the newest posts first.
What began in the late 1990s as online diaries evolved into a medium for journalism, commentary, and professional content.
Someone who blogs is a blogger: She's been blogging about food for ten years.
The verb blog works transitively too: He blogged the whole conference.
