This is a blog. The word "blog" comes from the word "weblog". A "log" is a record of events, actions, or conditions. Logs are kept by people in many different fields, but originated on sailing ships, when the skipper had to keep records of wind speeds, direction, weather conditions, and distance traveled.
Blogs are now kept by people all over the world. A blog can be a record of your work, ideas, thoughts, almost anything you can think of.
