CEP810: A Web Page and a Blog ... what's the difference?
A web page is a document usually in html or in xhtml format. A collection of related web pages is called a web site. It is created to provide information about an individual, a company, a service or other areas that require more of a description rather than of an opinion. A web log or blog is a collection of posts which is formatted as a series of entries with dates and titles. It is frequently updated by an individual and may serve as a set of journal entries. Usually, it allows readers to leave comments about the commentary, idea, or issue that has been posted. Both a web page and a blog may include graphics, audio, video, and links to web sites and involve internet access. So can a blog be a web page? Or can a web page be a blog? What do you think?

I always think of web pages as sources of information and not much more. The author may even be trying to promote a particular agenda but it seems like a one shot deal. Blogs can serve two purposes - establish a base of information and allow the author to present knowledge based on his/her idea of how the world can be. This can change based on the comments and communication with others. So the dilemma remains - web page or blog????
