Just like the ISBN identifies a book, the ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) indentifies a serial. Weblogs qualify as serial publications.
Advantages
There are a couple of advantages to securing an ISSN for your blog: Legitimacy and indexation.
With an ISSN, your Weblog indisputably qualifies as a serial or periodical, putting you in the same category as Time and the New Yorker. Your Weblog will be indexed in the international database of publications. It will then be possible for a would-be reader to ask a librarian to locate your Weblog via the ISSN database. Further, the more Webloggers apply for and use ISSNs, the greater the perceived legitimacy of electronic publications.
