    How would you differentiate articles writing and blogging?

    I think both are same but when you write post on blogs you actually communicate with the readers but articles are not written in a way that you are talking to them. In articles you will only find information.

    Am I right?

    yes, articles should be on some topic.
    while blogpost can be anything - it can be as small as "thanks" :D

    Actually I am thinking of making a page/section on my site wherein I will write stuff that will be related to different things which include Make money online, free icons, how to build backlinks, how to be safe with google, SEO techniques, graphics... etc

    so what should I call that page ... BLOG or ARTICLES?

    Blog is an online diary, but article normally pertains to a subject proper.

    Articles are generally more in depth than blog posts. Also, an article can be used as a blog post but most blog posts wouldn't pass as an article.

    Both are same. But through blogging we can have more user interaction through comments etc

    Tend to think of articles as more factual while blogging is more personal

    blogging is personal, you can write your personal thought, your diary, your own views in the blog. at article you write something keeping in mind of other peoples who will read it.
