Online Diary (Blogs)
An online diary is a personal diary or journal that is published on the World Wide Web (www) on a personal website or a diary-hosting website. In online diaries, people write about their day-to-day experiences, social commentaries, complaints, poems, prose, illicit thoughts and any content that might be found in a traditional paper diary or journal. They often allow readers to contribute through comments.
Online diaries have existed since 1994. Today they are called blogs. Online diaries soon caught the attention of the media with the publication of the book 24 hours in Cyberspace (1996) which captured personal profiles of the people involved in early web pages. The earliest book-length scholarly discussion of online diaries is Philippe Lejeune’s Chercran, (“Dear Screen”, not yet translated to English). The formation of diary hosting websites such as Open Diary, Diary-X, Xanga, Femmunity and Live Journal caused an explosive growth of online diaries and journals. Today, interactive online diaries, online journals, personal blogs and group blogs are integrated into the daily lives of many teenagers and college students, with communications between friends playing out online. On-line diaries are easily readable by all their friends, enemies, and complete strangers. Personal opinions on experiences and hobbies are very common in the blog world. Blogs have given the opportunity for people to express their views to a mass audience.
In October 2006, the History Matters campaign, a 2006 joint project by the major heritage organizations in England and Wales, conducted the One Day in History project, asking residents of the UK to write an online diary of what they did on 17 October 2006. The diaries were stored at the British Library from November.
