Whois & Analysis for dualmedia.com

A blog (a truncation of "weblog") is an informational website consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries (posts).

Posts are typically displayed in reverse chronological order so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web page.

Until 2009, blogs were often the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or topic.

In the 2010s, "multi-author blogs" (MABs) emerged, featuring the writing of multiple authors and sometimes professionally edited.

MABs from newspapers, other media outlets, universities, think tanks, advocacy groups, and similar institutions account for an increasing quantity of blog traffic.

The rise of Twitter and other "microblogging" systems helps integrate MABs and single-author blogs into the news media.

Blog can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Innovation is the practical implementation of ideas that result in the introduction of new goods or services or improvement in offering goods or services.

ISO TC 279 in the standard ISO 56000:2020 defines innovation as "a new or changed entity, realizing or redistributing value".

Others have different definitions; a common element in the definitions is a focus on newness, improvement, and spread of ideas or technologies.

Usenet, USENET, or "in full", User's Network, is a worldwide distributed discussion system available on computers.

It was developed from the general-purpose Unix-to-Unix Copy (UUCP) dial-up network architecture.

Tom Truscott and Jim Ellis conceived the idea in 1979, and it was established in 1980.

Users read and post messages (called articles or posts, and collectively termed news) to one or more topic categories, known as newsgroups.

Usenet resembles a bulletin board system (BBS) in many respects and is the precursor to the Internet forums that have become widely used.

Discussions are threaded, as with web forums and BBSes, though posts are stored on the server sequentially.

High technology (high tech), also known as advanced technology (advanced tech) or exotechnology, is technology that is at the cutting edge: the highest form of technology available.

It can be defined as either the most complex or the newest technology on the market.

The opposite of high tech is low technology, referring to simple, often traditional or mechanical technology; for example, a slide rule is a low-tech calculating device.

When high tech becomes old, it becomes low tech, for example vacuum tube electronics.

Further, high tech is related to the concept of mid-tech, that is a balance between the two opposite extreme qualities of low-tech and high-tech.

Mid-tech could be understood as an inclusive middle that combines the efficiency and versatility of digital/automated technology with low-tech's potential for autonomy and resilience.
