In the 2000s, 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 <a href="/wiki/Author" title="Author">authors</a> and sometimes professionally <a href="/wiki/Editing" title="Editing">edited</a>. MABs from <a href="/wiki/Newspaper" title="Newspaper">newspapers</a>, other <a href="/wiki/News_media" title="News media">media outlets</a>, universities, <a href="/wiki/Think_tank" title="Think tank">think tanks</a>, <a href="/wiki/Advocacy_group" title="Advocacy group">advocacy groups</a>, and similar institutions account for an increasing quantity of blog <a href="/wiki/Web_traffic" title="Web traffic">traffic</a>.

Previously, knowledge of such technologies as HTML and <a href="/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol" title="File Transfer Protocol">File Transfer Protocol</a> had been required to publish content on the Web, and early Web users therefore tended to be <a href="/wiki/Hacker" title="Hacker">hackers</a> and computer enthusiasts. As of the 2010s, the majority are interactive <a href="/wiki/Web_2.0" title="Web 2.0">Web 2.0</a> websites, allowing visitors to leave online comments, and it is this interactivity that distinguishes them from other static websites.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In that sense, blogging can be seen as a form of <a href="/wiki/Social_networking_service" title="Social networking service">social networking service</a>.

To users, this offered the appearance of a live diary that contained multiple new entries per day. At the beginning of each new day, new diary entries were manually coded into a new HTML file, and at the start of each month, diary entries were archived into their own folder, which contained a separate HTML page for every day of the month. Then, menus that contained links to the most recent diary entry were updated manually throughout the site.

Though Lott's comments were made at a public event attended by the media, no major media organizations reported on his controversial comments until after blogs broke the story.
