Rygtet bekræftes
Six Apart køber LiveJournal. Brad Fitzpatrick gør i sandhed, hvad han kan for at imødegå de bekymringer, der har huseret blandt LJ'erne de sidste dage. Mens bekymringerne rettede sig mod kulturen, er forsvaret rettet mod trust. En eksemplarisk case om to af nettets store buzzword.
NB. den enorme diskussion, Brad Fitzpatrick' annnouncement affødte på sitet!

Mena (Six Apart) har også i Mena's Corner et langt indlæg om handlen. Hun omtaler eksplicit hierarkiet og fordommene bloggerne imellem, men hun har jo også erfaring med, hvilke konflikter, der hurtigt kan hvirvles op i det miljø...... (Mena's Shocking Baby Scandal! I, II)

Også Mena ved præcis, hvad Branding and Affiliation is all about in the times of Risk Society: Earning Your Trust
"Change is scary and we can certainly expect LiveJournalers to worry about what this acquisition means for them. While we certainly can't just say "trust us" and gain all 5.6 million users' trust from day one..."

[day in the life] gør sig nogle interessante overvejelser over det billede medierne (læs journalister) giver af bloggere, og slutter med:
"I'd love to do a content analysis of major mass media outlet coverage of blogs and bloggers over the past couple of years - what is the non-blogging public hearing about blogs?"
Hvem kommer først? :)

Bloggerne fusionere. The 'Tribes' protesterer.
Rygterne fortæller at Six Apart er i færd med at købe Live Journal:
Om Malik on Broadband - Six Apart to buy Live Journal
apophenia er ikke begejstret og begrundelsen er ret interessant:

"Live Journal is a culture, not simply a product or commodity that can be bought. From an outsider's perspective, it might appear as though they are similar properties - they are both blogging tools, right? Wrong. [......] Movable Type is a product; LiveJournal is a community. Six Apart is seen as a community that provides tools, not culture. [.....]While many bloggers love to talk about LJ with disdain, as a low-brow version of the culture, i adore LJ from the bottom of my heart and i'm truly concerned that LJ's culture will be corrupted by an acquisition. It is not like any other blogging service and the needs that it serves are fundamentally different."

Smart Mobs: Folksonomy - more collective classification: "Folksonomy - more collective classification
How to Recognize The Future When It Lands On You, Technologies of Cooperation
Posted by Gerrit Visser at 09:08 AM

According to the free encyclopedia Wikipedia Folksonomy is a neologism for a practice of collaborative categorization using simple tags in a flat namespace.

This feature has begun appearing in a variety of social software. At present, the best examples of online folksonomies are social bookmarking probably del.icio.us, a bookmark sharing site, and Flickr, for photo sharing. Gmail's labeling system is somewhat similar to the use of tags, but it is not a folksonomy because users cannot share their categorizations. Folksonomy is related to the concept of faceted classification from library science.

Denham Grey writes on KM Knowdlege Tools that there is a growing interest in social classification and its relation to ontology development."

Privacy in the age of blogging
- tanker om blogging med undergraduates.
Crooked Timber: "As I prepare for my upcoming undergraduate class in which students will be required to maintain blogs, I have spent quite a bit of time thinking about how to comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). According to FERPA, I have to make sure that certain details about student enrollment in my classes are kept private. In the process, I have realized that this is a one-way street. There is nothing preventing my students from blogging whatever information they decide about me. Of course, social sanctions may still exist. Students may decide it is not worth upsetting their instructor through such practices. Nonetheless, there will be plenty of opportunities for blogging things after class is over. Moreover, they may have individual blogs not associated with the class that are written anonymously and can serve as an outlet for commentary about others."

By JEFFREY ROSEN

Published: December 19, 2004

One of the first sex scandals of the blogosphere ended, of course, in a book deal. In May, Ana Marie Cox, the Internet gossip whose Web log, Wonkette, focuses on Washington, published a link to another blogger who called herself the Washingtonienne. In the blog, Washingtonienne, a Capitol Hill employee, used a Senate computer to post intimate details about her experience sleeping with six different men, some of whom were paying for her favors.

The NITLE News Volume 2, Number 1, winter 2003: "Weblogs in Education: Bringing the World to the Liberal Arts Classroom

- Sarah Lohnes

A new, easy-to-use web publishing tool known as a weblog allows users to publish content to the web from their browsers, providing users with an unprecedented ability to participate in the internet community. In the true liberal arts tradition, teachers and students are using these tools to effectively break down the walls of the classroom, integrating teaching and learning with local and virtual communities."

Crooked Timber: Blogs by students
I am teaching an undergraduate class this Winter called “Internet and Society”. [1] I am going to require each student to maintain his/her own blog. This poses some challenges from keeping up with the amount of written material to assuring a certain level of privacy for students (as per related federal laws). I still have a few weeks to think about the specifics and thought would see what experiences and wisdom others may have accumulated in this realm.

Mathemagenic: learning and KM insights: " Blogging as breathing or how to find time for blogging?

(Friday, December 03, 2004)

On the use of time for blogging

The most asked question when I speak to people who don't blog, is where I get the time to do it.

In Umea we discussed time consumption and listed a number of time-consuming factors. Time is needed:

* To get used to the tools
* To grow a network
* To get into action with others
* To grow trust
* For getting to know and find useful (re)sources
* To find your voice (for yourself, for others)"
This seems like a list of things that apply to a lot more situations than just blogging.

En tankevækkende tekst, som peger på det væsentlige forhold, at blogging og netværk ikke bare opstår i løbet af no time. Det skal læres og dyrkes.

Using my existing MSN Passport account, I attempted to create a number of blogs, one after the other. The results of which titles passed and which were banned may surprise you -- or at least generate a few Beavis-and-Butthead snorkles. Each of the linked test-titles in this BoingBoing post points to to an actual, unmodified screenshot of the corresponding test blog I created (or was denied the ability to create) using MSN Search."

Article: The 'blog' revolution sweeps across China�| New Scientist

(19:00 24 November 04, Special Report from New Scientist Print Edition.)

It took a chance online encounter between a software engineer from Shanghai and a teacher in a remote province of China to start shaking up the power balance between the people and the government of the world’s most populous nation.

In August 2002, Isaac Mao, who worked at the Shanghai office of the chip maker Intel, was one of only a handful of people in China who had heard the word “blog”. A regular web surfer, he was fascinated by the freedom these online journals gave to ordinary people to publish both their own and their readers’ views online.

Surfing the US website blogger.com, Mao was thrilled to find Zheng Yunsheng, a teacher at a technical school in Fujian province. He left a message on Zheng’s blog, and two weeks later Mao and Zheng started CNBlog.org, China’s first online discussion forum about blogging technology and culture.

They soon gathered a small but devoted group of participants, many of whom went on to develop the technology that makes blogging possible for China’s half-a-million bloggers.

PortalsMag.com: Big-Time Blogging
Blogs and content aggregators are lead players in a new generation of tools that promise greater ability to create, distribute, and access Web content. The two also happen to have a symbiotic relationship: Blogs make content creation more accessible, and aggregators give greater control to readers of the ongoing proliferation of Web-based content. These tools are gaining attention in the media and the marketplace and hold great promise to transform the way the Web works. They are also starting to make inroads within corporations as collaborative and content management tools that can be used in conjunction with existing systems or as replacements.

Berlingske Tidende: "Blogs og kritisk journalistik


Af Af Jesper Lau Hansen Professor, dr.jur., Det juridiske Fakultet, Københavns Universitet
En blogger er en person, der fører en web log - en side på internettet med kommentarer, som alle kan se. Blogs kan handle om alt, og mange har karakter af nyhedsdækning ofte med en klar politisk vinkel. I nogle tilfælde er deres dækning mere kildekritisk og alsidig end de traditionelle mediers."

En kvalitativ undersøgelse af webloggens betydning i hverdagslivet Speciale om blogs. Medievidenskab, Københavns Universitet.

Kære Niels
Jeg mente ikke, at folk skulle sende emails - til dig/alle altså....

Det, jeg efterlyste, var en funktion i det vidensdelingssytem Kodefabrikken har lavet, der gør det muligt at sende emails fra eget postsystem til vidensdelingssystemet.
Dette indlæg har jeg f.eks. skrevet i et postprogram (Inotes). Derefter har jeg sendt det til min blog (den side, du nu sidder og ser på).

Fordelen er, at 'brugeren' anvender kendt teknologi (email), i stedet for at skulle have logins osv. til et nyt system. Forskellen fra mailen er, at indlæg er 'sorteret' idet den ligger på hjemmesiden i stedet for at rode rundt i deltagernes postsystemer.

Smart ikke?

"Computers are useless. They can only give you answers." -- Pablo Picasso

Som skrevet står er dette en test af BlogJets betaversion, som er gratis indtil d. 15. april. Umiddelbart ser den mindre avanceret ud end BlogThis. Der er f.eks. langt færre HTML Tags i menuen (dog er der adgang til den rå HTML kode).
Det er uhyre let at Uploade billeder, og der er også en simpel audio funktion.

En anden ret smart ting er, at man kan editere i gamle Blogtekster ved at hente dem ind (Wiew history) i BlogJet.

"All Consuming is a website that visits recently updated weblogs every hour, checking them for links to books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Book Sense, and other book sites. Every book on this site has a list of all the weblogs that have mentioned it, and every weblog that has mentioned books in the past also has a page here listing which books it has mentioned. If you have a weblog, search for it here to see if we've picked anything up from it yet."

Bøgerne nederst i højre spalte er kommet til Bloggen via All Consuming, og klikker man på dem kommer man direkte til.... Amazon dot com. Nifty tecknology!

GeoURL ICBM Address Server
"GeoURL is a location-to-URL reverse directory. This will allow you to find URLs by their proximity to a given location. Find your neighbor's blog, perhaps, or the web page of the restaurants near you."

Interessant er også kortene over bloggere (vælg higher-resolution maps - de er klikbare!). Kortene opdateres med 24 timers interval.

Spændende begreb: Situated Software:
Shirky: Situated Software: "Part of the future I believe I'm seeing is a change in the software ecosystem which, for the moment, I'm calling situated software. This is software designed in and for a particular social situation or context. This way of making software is in contrast with what I'll call the Web School (the paradigm I learned to program in), where scalability, generality, and completeness were the key virtues. "

Redigeringsredskabet wblogger kan jeg næppe anbefale nok. I denne editor kan alle lave mange af de formateringer, der før kun var mulige i templaten, og som derfor krævede kendskab til HTML.
Og så findes den oven i købet i en dansksproget version. Dog ikke en dansk stavekontrol - men den kommer måske engang :)

Under opsætningen fik jeg dog en fejlmelding, og supporten er ikke noget at råbe hurra for. Det lykkedes dog - med noget besvær, der er flere spørgsmål end svar i det forum - at finde løsningen i wbloggers User Forum
