B.Classification of Blogs
and opinion about the
most appropriate classification approach

Classification of Blogs:

Classification through Genre (Carter n.d.):

• Personal blog - popular and can be used to for income generation through 'pay-per-click' ads or links to certain websites

• Cultural blog - discussions pertain to performance arts (eg. music, theater) and cultures

• Topic blog - discussions based on function such as search engines

• Business blog – topics include marketing, finance and other business fields

• Science blog – main uses include data dissemination

• Collaborative blog –the result of cooperation between two or more authors

• Eclectic blog – topic revolves around niches or rare issues

• Educational blog– topics include lectures or chapters learnt by students

• Directory blog – publishes events and activites

• Forum blog –multiple bloggers discusses among themselves through the same site




Classification through Device:

• Moblog – Blogging through a mobile phone via MMS or SMS. It is relevant for people whom are on the move that wants to share their thoughts all the time (Knudsen 2003)



Classification through Media Types:

• Linkblog/ linklog – it is also known as social book markings as people share links with each other
• Videoblog / vlog [Figure 1] – video recording blogs. Eg Youtube.
• Liveblog – blogging about some live events e.g sports, tv shows, press conference
• Sketchlog – a blog that is filled with images such as drawings and sketches.
• Tumblelog -blog that focuses on main points and description is often left out


An example of a video blog/ vlog


Classification through Status of publishers:

• Business blogs
• Corporate blogs




Some of the different styles of blogs include (Simons 2008):

• Pamphleteering Blogs
• The Digest Blog
• The Exhibition Blog
• The Diary
• The News Blog

An example of a blog that I know is Rewind Button Girl. The author of this blog applies the Diary Style into the blog.
This personal blog can be compared to one of Simon's theories on the blog styles, which is the "The Diary" style.
The Diary style [Figure 2] usually applies to friends and families of the author and they contain news, information, and photos that are related to the author (Simons 2008).
It is partly similar to a diary, despite the blog URL is available to all. The Rewind Button Girl author often writes about her personal life and also shares her interest such as rugby, hanging out, and more on her blog. This indicates that authors of the Diary blog most likely wants to update all their friends on their current situation.
