Back to square one: what is a blog, anyway? 

A friend, who remains anonymous –  but you know who you are! — mentioned that she needed remedial blog training. She was laughing, but seriously so. Jumping into this fast-moving river can scare even the warrior women amongst us away.

So, I googled and surfed a bit and found a solid, fundamental explanation of blogging.

Here ya go: it’s Darrell Zahorsky’s section on Small businesses in about.com. Look to the side of the article, “What a Blog Can Do for Your Small Business,” for a link to the “Anatomy of a blog.” Good info there. Also, scroll down the main page for his samples of well-done business blogs.

And THAT is one of the wonders of the Internet and the blog community: sharing this wealth of knowledge so we can all get a running start before we jump into that river.
