A weblog or blog is defined as a “frequently update websites consisting of dated entries arranged in reverse chronological order so that the most recent past appears first”. Blogs are usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events or other material such as graphics or video. In this paper we have surveyed and analyzed the blog author’s personality. In today’s scenario Internet is the best way for sharing the individual thoughts. With respect to Internet, Weblogs (Blogs) give the opportunity to individuals for writing and expressing their feeling in front of others. On the basis of written blog it is a great challenge to identify the trait of the authors. Here, we performed a survey and found the precious constraints viz. High Extrovert, Low Extrovert, High Introvert, Low Introvert which are very useful while we decide the personality of authors. To overcome previous problems, we analyzed the text written in blog. This analysis leads us to identify the personality of the author. As predicted High extrovert generally more emphasize on present tense with adjective which has positive felling. Author belongs to either high introvert or low extrovert use generally negative emotion thought, but more features is available in high introvert e.g. short sentences, maximum first person pronoun. There is one more category known as low introvert, here authors generally discuss about the current scenario as well as the sentences are comparatively large with positive feelings. This paper will be helpful for beginners in this field.
