An online diary is a personal diary or journal that is published on the World Wide Web on a personal website or a diary-hosting website.
Online diaries have existed since at least 1994. As a community formed, these publications came to be almost exclusively known as online journals. Today they are almost exclusively called blogs, though some differentiate by calling them personal blogs. The running updates of online diarists combined with links inspired the term 'web log' which was eventually contracted to form the word 'blog'.
In online diaries, people write about their day-to-day experiences, social commentary, complaints, poems, prose, illicit thoughts and any content that might be found in a traditional paper diary or journal. They often allow readers to contribute through comments or community posting.

In my evolving social networking and online marketing agenda I've finally found the blog format that fits into that agenda, a diary blog. Blogging can be burdensome to me without a clear focus. Blogging has to be fun to some extent for me to maintain it. "My Networking Day" I hope to be informative and inspiring for all those who read it. Join me on my online networking journey. "Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home. "
