Listserv
A listserv is an e-mail commmunication tool that offers its members the opportunity to post (email) suggestions or questions to a large number of people at the same time.  When you submit a question or something that you want to share with the listserv members, your submission is distributed to all of the people on that list.
 
Blogs 
A blog is:
• A blog is normally a single page of entries. There may be archives of older entries, but the "main page" of a blog is all anyone really cares about.
• A blog is organized in reverse-chronological order, from most recent entry to least recent.
• A blog is normally public -- the whole world can see it.
• The entries in a blog usually come from a single author.
• The entries in a blog are usually stream-of-consciousness. There is no particular order to them. For example, if I see a good link, I can throw it in my blog. The tools that most bloggers use make it incredibly easy to add entries to a blog any time they feel like it.
