Into the Blogosphere
You are familiar with this site, I know, but it has some interesting features we might consider. I noticed that the discussion board has been closed down, though, because of spam and a lack of posts. We should consider that might become a problem for us as well.
This online, edited collection explores discursive, visual, social, and other communicative features of weblogs. Essays analyze and critique situated cases and examples drawn from weblogs and weblog communities. Such a project requires a multidisciplinary approach, and contributions represent perspectives from Rhetoric, Communication, Sociology, Cultural Studies, Linguistics, and Education, among others.

Voices of Democracy Project
An NEH Teaching and Learning Resources and Curriculum Development Materials Development Grant. I knew of this project from when Mike Hogan from PSU came to interview for a comm job a couple of years ago. Not much happening there yet, but it is an example of an NEH funded web project.
Voices of Democracy promotes the study of great speeches and public debates in the humanities undergraduate classroom. The project is designed to provide reliable, authenticated primary texts and contextual and interpretive materials under seven deliberative topics: Citizenship, Civil Rights, Freedom of Speech, Religion and Public Life, Social and Economic Justice, U.S. Internationalism, and War and Peace. In the process of reinvigorating the humanistic study of U.S. oratory, the Voices of Democracy project aims to foster understanding of the nation's principles and history and to promote civic engagement among today's undergraduate students. Voices of Democracy represents a collaborative and interdisciplinary project involving scholars from Baylor University, Penn State University, and University of Maryland, College Park.

The HistoryBrowser
The HistoryBrowser allows users to interactively browse historical events in a number of ways. It is a generative browser, allowing users to not only view preset collections of events, but to construct their own views of the events based on selected criteria. The HistoryBrowser makes it easy to construct complex queries about historical events, weaving maps, timelines, and data visualizations to encourage insight.
The HistoryBrowser is not a tool simply geared toward the delivery of information visually-- rather it is a tool for manipulating data in a visual manner so that new questions can be asked of that information. The difference is the same as that between watching a documentary and creating one: the user’s questions decide what visualizations the HistoryBrowser’s powerful tools will generate.

The Digital Corinth Synchronized Database Project
This site is one of the previously funded NEH projects. A research team from the Mediterranean Section of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania has been involved in making a computerized architectural and topographical survey of the Roman colony of Corinth. Known as the Corinth Computer Project, the field work has been carried out under the auspices of the Corinth Excavations of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, Dr. Charles K. Williams II, Director. This is very different from what we want to do, but may give us some direction as to what the NEH might want.
