Currently enjoying Blog Talk Downunder in Sydney Australia. There have been some great papers and a great opportunity to meet other bloggers and blogging educators.
All the papers are up on the conference website and a number of people are blogging the conference.
I did a paper yesterday on blogging and higher education in which I referenced the Kairos "Falling out of Love with Blogging" discussion.
Check it out!
Good paper, Marcus
My travel budget and the sanity of my wife didn't permit me to go to Australia, but thanks for posting this links to your paper, Marcus. Considering the thesis of your paper, you might be interested in blogs.setonhill.edu, which is the community website for Seton Hill Unviersity academic weblogs. While most of the blogs there are individual blogs that I created for students who were in one or another of my classes, some of the most active bloggers include faculty members, students who've never been in any of my classes (and have never blogged for class) and the director of admissions, who keeps a personal fitness blog and has also started blogging about university events as a recruitment vehicle.
I just posted a roundup of interesting extra-curricular blogging that's currently going on.
At any rate, I blogged your paper... I hope to hear more from you.
