Have You Visited These Blogs
Bloggers in the world have passed the 70 million mark. It's a blog boom. One of the attractions of blogs is the personal homepage. You can find easily around you bloggers who are into personal homepages. Here are some fascinating blogs popular among bloggers.
Blog (an on-line personal diary) is a personal website that a person freely updates in regard to content according to her interest and that can be visited by other internet users who can view those contents. ‘Webblog in Korea,' a meeting place for blog-users on-line, was first formed in December 2001. 'Blog (www.blog.co.kr),' a commercial service, started in August 2002. But blogs did not catch fire with the general Korean public until well after 2003 with the use of 'minihomepages,' a Korean version of blogs.
According to the 『Analysis of Blogger Use in 2007』, four out of ten internet users in South Korea maintain blogs or minihomepages, with women and students in the lead.
