  • Another Aust PhD Blog

    Found another Australian PhD weblog. it’s called emanations and it belongs to a melbourne uni philosophy student called Matt Carter who I’m pretty sure is the same Matt Carter (and this is so Brisbane) who was a buddy of mine in first year linguistics at the University of Queensland, and who actually lived across the…

  • Blogging for credit?

    Sebastien Paquet wonders, along with Andrew Chen, Jill Walker, and Professor Bainbridge about the benefits of research blogs as opposed to formal academic publication. I don’t quite see why it’s an either/or situation – for me, a research blog is a thinking, talking, networking tool and a shared interest magnet; academic publishing is a more…

  • London Bloggers

    London Bloggers is a directory of weblogs written by people who live or work in london, organised by the rather iconic London Tube map. Wish I lived in a place populous enough to need such a thing. via cityofsound

  • Gridblogging: The Next Layer

    The next grid blogging topic is Ritual, set to go off on Jan 15. I’m really excited about this one, and I expect to see some new blogs come out of the woodwork for it. [grid::brand] was a good start, and there were some really interesting posts. But I did find that I was jumping…

  • [grid::brand]

    I did have some thoughts on how weblogs themselves operate as and through brands, but I decided I would rather collate and discuss the grid blogging experiment itself. GridMeister Ashley Benigno starts grid blogging off in style, with a poetic set of reflections on the ubiquity of the brand. [NB: I normally refrain from post-publication…
