1. A method for providing a weblog in a peer-to-peer environment, comprising:
- making changes to said weblog, wherein said changes are dispatched to a node of a participant user in the case where said node of said participant user is online, wherein a notification that changes have been made is dispatched to said node of said participant user in the case where said node of said participant user is offline, wherein, in the case where said node of said participant user is offline, upon coming back online said node of said participant user searches for changes that occurred to said weblog during a time said node of said participant user was offline, and wherein metadata corresponding to said weblog is made available to one or more nodes of users not participating in said weblog.
