n., computer science. A log, or frequently updated list, of links to web sites the author (sometimes called a blogger) finds interesting, accompanied by short-form commentary and sometimes incorporating reader feedback and interest/relevancy rankings. Also often characterized by its inverted ordering - most recent additions are listed at the top of the page, with entries getting older as you progress down.

Publishing has been facilitated by sites like blogger.com, pitas.com, and scripts like Greymatter. Such tools are often used to publish web journals, causing some blurring of the lines between the external-site focused weblog and the online journal.
