A blog is a way to verbally express something about a topic or maybe how you're feeling; it's a way to speak your opinion. By definition, a Blog is "A regularly updated web page or website, typically run by one person or a small group, that is written in informal style" (Google).
Do I have any history blogging? I think I had to maybe write something in blogger for Spanish once but I don't remember doing that because it was a very long time ago, so to answer the question no. But I have read some blogs before on topics of sports or video games or things related to that. I think blogs are very intriguing because they put into perspective the thoughts and ideas of others and it makes you think about other peoples opinions on whatever subject you're reading about.
I think that blogs can be extremely useful in the classroom because they can be used to post homework and information for people who missed class that day. They can also be useful for people to give feedback to the teachers on maybe a new style of teaching they tried out that day, or they can take a consensus on what style of teaching works best for each particular student and they can say why and ways that they can help each other reach the common goal of succeeding.
Here's an example of an educational Blog: http://coolcatteacher.blogspot.com
