They can view, read, and comment on other people's posts. Posts can typically be displayed in filters that are relevant to viewers. The website can be used as a personal blog, where an individual creates an ongoing online diary or commentary about what they are interested in. It can also be a discussion on different topics such as politics, technology, or advocacy, etc.
