This is hard to explain, but I've seen websites with their own blogs coded onto the website itself. I'm wondering how they do this, I think it involves some PHP or something.

I need to know how to do this, I just want a customizable blog with a simple interface when adding messages.

Can anyone help me out? I need to know this for a web designer job offer on craigslist. Help me out and me love you long time.

Wouldn't it be just like a comment box that only you could post in and would be hidden unless you clicked on a link?

Really, you shouldn't be taking a web design job if you don't know how to make a blog.

Many people also program their blogs from scratch, using a language such as PHP with a database system like MySQL.

Ah of course, WordPress! I forgot all about them. Thanks, I'll look into it.
