Proponho que se dê o direito de "postar" a qualquer um que de alguma forma se mostre interessado.

How blogs differ from traditional webpage sites

A blog has certain attributes that distinguish it from a standard web page. It allows for easy creation of new pages: new data are entered into a simple form (usually with the title, the category, and the body of the article) and then submitted. Automated templates take care of adding the article to the home page, creating the new full article page (Permalink), and adding the article to the appropriate date- or category-based archive. It allows for easy filtering of content for various presentations: by date, category, author, or other attributes. It allows the administrator to invite and add other authors, whose permission and access are easily managed. See "Types of Blogs" below.

Difference between Blogs, Forums, Wikis and Newsgroups

BLOGS: Blogs are different from (forum)s or (wiki)s and also (newsgroups). Only the blog's author, or authoring group, can make the decision to create new subjects for discussion on a blog. A network of blogs can function like a forum in that every entity in the blog network can create subjects of their class. Such networks require interlinking to be able to function as a blog-forum, so a group blog with multiple people holding posting rights is now becoming more common.

FORUMS: On the other hand, there seems to be a great deal of confusion in the media and public between "blogs", (forums) and (wikis). Blog owners or editors or "Blog-masters", will initiate and frame discussion topics, manipulating the situation to their own specification(s), even when others are allowed post to their blog. This theme of a "Blog-master" or "blog master group" occurs because; originally, - "blogs" were a type of "Web log", hence the term "Blog".

Whereas, "forums" are more aptly to take the pattern or theme that any and all participants may post their comments, and/or questions, to the site which usually are indexed with dated enteries, much like many "blogs". Such comments or questions are expressed and written in a "forum" in what many might call a an "interactive discussion" group "forum", using the Internet as it's medium of exchange.

Depending on the forum's overall structure or pattern, - the "discussion topic" or submitted "question" may revolve around a specific theme, sometimes called a (thread), or the forum pattern may be one which ranges over a multitude of topics, or many "themes" of great range or span; it all depends on the forum and what type of (forum) it may be, e.g. C-Net's technical forum and "help" website. Such discussion groups like "forums" and/or (wikis) can be very similar.

WIKIS: In "wikis" multiple authors may both post comments and/or ask questions, rather than usually only making statements or "comments" on a specific theme or "thread", such as what is usually found in the case of "Blogs". Because "wikis" too may take the form of interactive "stored" ("recorded") dialogue between various individuals and/or groups, they too, are quite popular; and thus, "wikis" see much use in the new information technology world, as well.

All three: Blogs, Forums, and Wikis, have similarities and overlap each other on some technical points, but at the same time, there are specific difference, as well that should be learned and recognized by the public-at-large.
