Scripting News: 3/5/2002
"You're probably too young to know about streaking. Believe it or not in the 70s people took off all their clothes and ran around in public. "Look at that look at that," sang Ray Stevens. Well, that's what bloggers do, they show more of themselves than most people would think prudent. "
The Blog Phenomenon - Columns by PC Magazine
"A recent overlooked Web trend—overlooked by the mainstream media, at least—is the proliferation of public diaries, generically referred to as Blogs. The term originated from "WeB log" and was further promoted by pyra.com as a Blog at its www.blogger.com site, although www.pita.com is considered the original source of easy-to-use Web logging. People who "Blog" are called Bloggers, and right now there are hundreds, thousands of Blogs on the Net.
The vanity page is dead; long live the Blog. The vanity Web page has lost momentum. People who posted one have already done so, and the growth has slowed. Most are uninteresting and uninspired. Cat pictures dominate too many of them. A Blog is the next iteration, and most vanity site mavens have gravitated toward these things. Serious vanity site developers have gone into posting hobby or special-interest sites, having learned by experience how to make an attractive Web page. This is, indeed, progress."
Manufactured Serendipity
"There are a number of people out there speculating as to why the blogging phenomenon is occurring. Like most people, I feel that everyone else is missing the point, so I've set out to correct this in my own way."

Main Page - AcademicBlogs
"Welcome to the main portal page for the academic blogs wiki. Brad DeLong has described the academic blogosphere as a kind of Invisible College - this site is supposed to help make the College a little more visible to itself and its readers. It is a work in progress and will remain that way. It draws on updated information from (a) the Crooked Timber academic blogroll, (b) Cliopatria's list of history weblogs and (c) Daniel Solove's Law Professor Blogger Census. With the exception of a few pages (including this one), it is freely modifiable, so that users can themselves add blogs and other forms of content that may be useful to academic bloggers and academics academics more generally. Before modifying the contents of this wiki in any way, you should consult the Frequently Asked Questions. If you are unfamiliar with how to change wikis, consult the basic directions, and, for more advanced topics, Wikipedia's detailed editing FAQ (this wiki is based on Mediawiki, the underlying platform for Wikipedia). Anonymous editing is no longer allowed because of spamming - you need to create a personal ID first, and solve a simple addition or subtraction problem to prove that you are a Real Human Being."
