Classification of blogs & opinion about the most appropriate classification approach

Nowadays, with the evolution of new ecosystem, there a lot of people are starting use blog. So a lot of people will come out many different type of blog for them to publishing. According to Wordpress, blog can be divided into personal, business, schools, Non-profits, politics, military, private, sports and How-to, tips and review.  

Personal blog is talking about personal topics like their own activities; own thoughts, music, travels, and everything happened to them. The personal blog’s topic, style, format is different with the taxanomy blogs. In personal blog, the style and format usually is informal, for example, the way of their writing, and they will use their own specific words to describe something that we can’t usually see in the serious blog. We took an example in Malaysia; Malaysia is a mutli-racial country and so there a lot of language. In personal blogs, some bloggers may use different language and mix up together to writing their blogs. 

In business blog, there will be different with personal blog, business owner can also promote their product by blogging. When we look at business blog, the format will be a little formal if compared to personal blog.
