Does $\log(x)$ stop at a finite value when x is infinite? Does $\log(x)$ stop at a certain value when x is infinite? Or is it also infinite?
I can see the graph go straighter and straighter in the horizontal direction, and I wonder if it will eventually be completely horizontal (i.e. gradient is equal to $0$). 
Is that true or not?
 A: This is an informal graphical explanation. Reflect the graph of $ y = e^{x} $ about the line $ y = x $ so as to obtain the graph of $ y = \log(x) $. The statement that $ y = \log(x) $ has a horizontal asymptote is then seen to be mathematically equivalent to the statement that $ y = e^{x} $ has a vertical asymptote. However, the second statement cannot be true.
A: While it is true that $\lim\limits_{x\to+\infty} \left(\frac{d\log x}{dx}\right) = \lim_{x\to+\infty} \frac 1x = 0$, i.e. the graph of $\log$ does get flatter and flatter as $x$ increases, we still have that $\log x \to +\infty$ as $x \to +\infty$. 
An easy way to see this is to note that $\log$ is the inverse function to $\exp$ which is increasing and defined on all of $\mathbb R$ with $\lim\limits_{x\to+\infty} \exp x = +\infty$. 
Things are of course not different if your logarithm is base $10$ as noted by the comments.
A: The concept of limits can help here. The limit of Log(x) as x approaches huge values (infinity) is a huge undefined value and is not a constant value. Graphs may be misleading sometimes to extrapolate from.
A: Considering natural logarithm you may just simply note that ,
$\ln e^x  = x$, and $e^x → ∞$  is simply equivalent to $x→ ∞$.
