2005 metais buvo sukurtas pirmas lietuviškas internetinių dienoraščių portalas blogas.lt ir adaptuotas lietuviakalbiams internetinių dienoraščių vartotojams. Pirmos internetinių dienoraščių bendruomenės pradėjo kurtis dar paskutiniame XX amžiaus dešimtmetyje. Jų tyrimai prasidėjo neseniai, bet dėmesys yra didelis ir vis augantis. Internetinių dienoraščių pagrindu kuriasi elektroninės bendruomenės, kiekvienas jų narys reprezentuoja save per savo internetinį dienoraštį. Darbe nagrinėjama lietuviškų internetinių dienoraščių bendruomenė, kuri yra susiformavusi pagal ankščiau atsiradusį angliakalbių internetinių dienoraščių modelį. Ši bendruomenė yra sparčiai besiplėtojanti, pastebimas spartus portalo blogas.lt vartotojų skaičiaus augimas. Lietuviškų internetinių dienoraščių bendruomenė tam tikrais aspektais atitinka tradicinę bendruomenę: turi specifinę socialinę hierarchiją, vertybinę sistemą, kontrolės ir reprodukcijos mechanizmus, socialinio gyvenimo formų įvairovę. Be to, internetinio dienoraščio vartotojas, kurdamas savo dienoraštį gali pasirinkti bet kokią temą ir pateikti informaciją skirtingais būdais. Visa tai leidžia jam pristatyti save ir būti bendruomenės nariu, bendrauti su kitais jos nariai. Darbo tikslas yra lietuviškų dienoraščių interneto bendruomenės analizė sekančiais aspektais: lietuviškų dienoraščių internetinės bendruomenės genezė, struktūra, dienoraščių portalo vartosena ir tematika.
