The main scientific purpose of the article was to show emigration blogs as a specific form of personal documents, which, apart from the information function, are a tool for expressing oneself, creating one's own image, and communicating with other emigrants. The research attention was also focused on the structure of blogs, their divisions and classifications, characteristic features, determined mainly by the substantive contents spread throughout the web. The presented examples confirm that blogs, as personal notes, are a very important element of everyday life of emigration diarists, and a wide range of readers.
