Telegraph

In November 2016, Telegram introduced a blogging platform to go along with its popular messaging app. This blogging platform is called Telegraph (http://telegra.ph/), and it is quick, easy, and anonymous. 

To use Telegraph you just go to Telegra.ph, and start writing. Enter a title for your article, your name (or pseudonym), and add some content, embed a photo or video; and when you are finished just click the 'Publish' button.

Your article is immediately uploaded, and you are able to share it by copying its URL (link) and providing it to others. You could for example share content rich articles by posting the URLs to your Twitter feed. You can even edit an entry after it is posted, as long as your browser accepts cookies and you return to your blog entry using the same browser.

With Telegraph there is not a blog that you point to as your own, rather all articles are uploaded to the Telegram/Telegraph servers and you share an article by sharing its URL. You can claim articles as your own, by listing yourself as the author and openly sharing the links to what you have written, or you can write anonymously by using a pseudonym and accessing Telegraph through your VPN or thorough TOR. The anonymous nature of Telegraph also opens up opportunities for abuse, as anyone can type absolutely anything in the "name" field, potentially tricking people into believing an article has been written by someone else. Still, I believe that the advantages of Telegraph far outweigh any potential for abuse.
