    If it's not a blog, then it's not a blog...

    But you can run a blog on plain html pages, a blog is defined by how it's used, not by how it's created.

    Do you mean if you use CMS like wordpress for your site... if it'll be considered as a blog? This all depends on the content and how you present the site.

    In the same way does a website created using wordpress is considered a blog?

    So if your site meets these requirements, you can call it a blog ;)

    As far as I know, a blog is just a web site that allows community interaction and is updated frequently with "posts."

    that description sounds more like a forum than a blog...there is quite a bit of difference between the two ;)

    If you mean considered as a blog by the search engines, then I think the answer is yes.
    You can find an example here:
    http://citroenmedia-seo-wedstrijd.computerabc.nl/

    (It's in dutch, but you'll understand the point)
    The search engine bots CAN NOT make a difference between HTML created by PHP code (like wordpress or a self-coded blogsystem) or HTML that is static.

    So if you create your website, and update the static HTML in chronological order, it will probably be seen as a blog :)
