Some of the most interesting writing in academe is in blogs yet blogs are not recognized as credible academic work. A fine scholarly article below on blogs is found at http://www.thesacredpage.com/2010/11/sbl-paper-weblogs-and-academy.html .
I find blogs highly useful and would like to see them as a more full means of engaging others in pondering--maybe along the lines of the salons, etc. noted in the RSA "Where Good Ideas Come From" by Stephen Johnson
I’m in a pondering mode. My blog is an excellent way to extend a classroom discussion, share ideas, and think through a concept. How to make the blog more viable as a form of academic publishing is still out there on the horizon.
