What is a Blog?
Merriam-Webster defines Blog as, a noun short for Weblog: a website that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments and often hyperlinks provided by the writer. A blog is without a doubt, Instant Publishing! A weblog, or blog for short, is essentially your online journal, and blogging means that you are writing or updating your weblog with information about your business niche, topic or theme. When someone visits your blog, they will see your most recently published article first, with the older ones listed below in descending chronoligical order.

picturePrior to full-blown Blog software, the options for interactive communication via the Internet were narrow and problematical. First was e-mail. Instant messaging, followed by Chatrooms solved some of the problems. Chatrooms enabled people of similar interests to come together to read and relate to each other’s posted messages. The Blog, however, has many advantages over these formats, while retaining some useful core aspects of them all.

Advantages of a Blog on your Web Site

What bloggers have yet failed to achieve, is clearly communicate and explain the power these tools offer to the non-technical person. Blogs can cater to niche audiences, and your Custom Blog will be Category specific, and relevant or tailored to your business.

Red River Fly Fishing Report 03/25/2004

On 3/6 I fished with Joe & Rita. It was the first nice warm day after a week of cold snowy weather..The normal Mayfly hatch came off and the fish were on the emerger. We didn’t see a lot of Caddis…A good day but not great..On 3/7 I fished for 4 hours below the Hatchery and water temps were 50-56*. Dry fly action on the Para Adams#14 was great for an hour or so. I didn’t see any Caddis..Fishing slowed after 3pm..On 3/8 Rita fished the same area I fished yesterday. She did very well and saw a bunch of Caddis that must have been hiding in the bushes yesterday. She fished a dry Caddis with a Caddis larva dropper. On 3/12 I fished alone, water temps were 52-56* and flow was up but fishable..It picked up when the Mayflies came off in early afternoon and continued good the rest of the day…Caddis later..On 3/19 I fished alone and temps were 53-60*. Lots of Caddis and the flow was up and fishing was fair..Best fish a 17″ Cutbo..On 3/28 I fished wth Rita and we got behind a couple of other anglers and it was poor but it is hard to say how the fishing is when you’re getting the second bite out of the apple..Water level remains higher than at this time in the past few years.
