Did you know that a new weblog is being created each second? Many of these bloggers are teenagers. While their parents wrote in a diary to express their emotions, or shared their interests by spending time with friends, teens are now using blogs instead. In fact, in the US, one in every five school-aged teens has a blog. Most of these are just chatter, some are funny or clever, but a few have become Internet success.For example, Chloe Spencers blog Neopets Fanatic gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason why her blog has so many visitors is that she gives instructions and tips for the popular pet site.Then there is Tavi Gevinsons blog Style Rookie. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, puts up her photos of her own clothes online as well as designers collections. Tavis blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out unusual clothes or see things in a different way.Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites are linked to them or they get noticed by the media(傳媒). For example, Tavis blog became an overnight(突 然的) success after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers sites.So for some, blogging is just a recreation( 消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!（1）Teens nowadays _ than their parents did.
