Yes, it is possible. You just need a registered domain name, a web server, and the blogging software.
Install Linux onto your server (as most Linux distros come with Apache, MySQL, PHP and all the tools you’ll need to run a blogging server). Install the blogging software of your choice. Set the A records for your domain name to point to your newly setup website, and you’re away!

LinuxOS thats a stupid answer.
the first part is correct.
but the second is dumb.
because first of all i highly doubt that he has purchased his own server with adequate bandwidth.
Try buying a domain and having a company hosting it. Id recconmend free domains for starting until you get serious and want to purchase a top level domain. Search Free domains in google.

Well, obviously, it IS possible. If you want a site like Xanga or MySpace, I’d say it can be done. =P
But if you really want to be a “hardcore” web developer just write your own blogging software. But you still need a domain name and a server.
