The past couple of days I have been working on a variety of programming projects. I started working on a C# blog that I am going to design and document on my blog. There are so many other blogs that exist, but few written in C#. I am going to follow the development of the software from start to finish. I think that there are few blogs that actually follow the development of software from the beginning to the end.

The blog. The basic concept of a blog is simple, a user posts a message and it is displayed for other users to read. I start out with a table of posts that has:

1. unique_post_id: A unique id for tracking comments to posts.
   
2. post_date: The date the post was made.
3. modified_date: The date the post was modified.
   
4. author_id: The author id. This will be important for a multi-user blog system.
   
5. text: The text of the blog entry.
   
6. status: Whether the post is active or inactive.

That is it. A simple blog table. There really isn't anything fancy or special about this one, but it can be expanded upon very easily with more customization if needed.
