Blogs have taken the Internet by storm, and they're the easiest way to publish your brilliant thoughts. Basically, a Blog (short for "Weblog") is an interactive, personalized Web journal for posting your views, art, rants, raves, reviews, pictures, music-anything that you want to share with the teaming masses (or a private group). You can make blog entries ("posts" or "updates") to your Weblog any time you want-like a what's new page or a journal-from news updates, to humor, insights, enrages, outrages, loves, hates, true and fictional stories. Whatever you want. It's up to you. Okay, not everyone posts entries to their Blogs in their underwear, but they probably should (hey, you're already baring your soul!)
Most people like to personalize their Blogs to make them an extension of who they are. You can make your Blog as colorful or as plain as you want. With our easy-to-use templates, you can show people that you're a sweet, gentle soul, or a tortured, misunderstood soul-or anything in between-it's up to you.
It's a group thang. Today, you need a community to share the news with-all through a site that's quick and easy for your visitors to understand. The latest posting about your upcoming CD release is right at the top-customized the way you want it, with graphics, and links, and info. It's all about building community, and a Blog is critical to building a community base-whether you're in a band or trying to get feedback on your latest short story.

"The mermaid is the loveliest creature on a' Geud's earth, or in a' the wide sea."
Just recently, I had been watching tv shows about mermaids, and it came to my mind, are these creatures really true?
A Mermaid is said to be marine creature with the head and upper body of a beautiful young maiden and with the lower body of a fish. She can be found in seas and lakes, or lying on a rock and combing her hair with one hand while holding a mirror in the other. Mermaids sometimes foretell the future and are often accompanied by seals.
According to myth, they lure sailors by singing and with lovely music. They live in a kingdom on the bottom of the sea, and it is here they take their prisoners to. From this story, the fear amongst the sailor grew and they thought that seeing a mermaid would cause bad luck: it could predict death by drowning.
The belief in mermaids is not limited to a few countries, but there are tales from all over the world (in India, for instance, there are the Apsara, beautiful water nymphs). However, most of those tales were told by sailors who "saw" them on their long journeys. The idea of mermaids and mermen, the male equivalent, could be based on creatures from Greek and Babylonian mythology:Sirens and Tritons of the Greeks, and the fish gods, who were half human and half fish, from the Babylonians.
Up to the present times, no one really know if mermaids really exist, still it serves as a mystery.
