The following GLOSSARY OF BLOGGING RELATED TERMS are often found on blog hosting websites. Sometimes they are referred to in reference to "coding" (what you see behind the pages, the markup language that creates text, images, and functions, putting them all in the right place before viewing a completed web page). Other terms have developed from 'user friendly jargon'. Jargon is another word for slang, and user friendly is what it sounds like -- when a text, computer program or function is designed to assist the computer user (you) without the aid of other learning tools. Jargon means that enough persons have utilized the suggestion(s) of bloggers so that a term has become familiar and accepted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both of these types of vocabulary, the technical and the user friendly terms may sound like greek to you at first, but with practice, and following the directions of the blogsite, these terms will start to take on new and promising meanings for a blogger. Hopefully they will assist the creative and fun part of building a webpage (BLOG).
