I think a blog is for leaving somewhat of a public journal. And I think forums is for public to leave messeges to each other. Good question though.

yep.

My blog (http://marchofthepigs.com/blog)

Notice the differences from charas.

If a forum can be related to a conversation, a blog would be like... more of a one sided conversation.... hmm... Hard to explain.

Actually, I think that it's the same thing..

Although.. The difference may be that a Message board is a more simple script.. Not sure.

Lol, I think message board is another name for forum as well. Its like a bubbler and a water fountain, two words that mean the same thing. BTW, who here uses the word bubbler? It may just be a wisconsin thing...

Anyway, isn't a blog just somwhere where you can post your feelings on a certain topic? I don't think blogs are really meant for discussions, just opinions, unlike forums where you can really discuss things. Or something like that :p

Blogs are like an online diary, or weblog. It's designed so that only one person can post new "topics", the rest can only comment on the entries.

Bubbler? Ive never heard that before. Actually i think i have though it was used to describe a pipe/bong, not a fountain.
And i think the word your looking for is a Synonym, atleast i think it is.  2 words that mean the same thing.

That´s right too...It´s an online diary. Kind of a journal. You write your feelings, you comment stuuf, it´s like your magazine, people read and comment. I wanted to do one about music, and I would take other people's review and publish them (with the credits of course...)...It could be about games too, cause its the gamers that understando about games, not reviewers for gamespot...
