A “blogger” is a person who writes on an Internet computer web site called a “blog”.The word “blog” is a short way of saying web log, or personal web site.Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.

There are millions of blogs on the Internet today.They provide news, information and ideas to many people who read them.They contain links to other web sites.And they provide a place for people to write their ideas and react to the ideas of others.

A research company called Perseus has studied more than 3,000 web logs.It says that blogs are most popular with teenage girls.They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their life.The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.

However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas.For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs.And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.

At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended.Last week, blogging leader Dave Winer closed his free blog service, weblogs.com.He says the site became too costly to continue.He started the blog four years ago, and thousands of people had written on it.

One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca’s Pocket.It involves much useful information for readers.Rebecca Blood created the web site in 1999.She wrote about the history of blogs on the site.That article led to a book called “The Weblog Handbook”.It has been translated into four languages so far.

Ms Blood says Rebecca’s Pocket gets about 30,000 visitors a month.She writes about anything and everything----politics, culture and movies.She recently provided medical advice.And she wrote about how to prevent people from stealing money from online bank accounts.

 Some time ago ,I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended ,as there are a whole lot of antique shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.

The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,“ Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said,“ Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,”I said. “OK, ”he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds. ”“It ‘s got a slightly broken leg,”I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.”

Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?”I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done. ”“I'll buy it,”I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,”he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I'm sorry, I'll give you twenty -seven pounds for it. ”“ Your must be crazy, ”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair. ”“ You’re right, ”I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said,Would you mend this chair for me?I wouldn't have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?”He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.
