BLOGS

 

Blogs take all forms - many very sophisticated (and many, not). I'll build up this collection. But feel free to let me know about your blog. Look to the blogrolls on the blogs you visit to find other interesting places to visit. Try some of the blogs on Famous Poets & Poems. There is also The Australian Index which attempts a comprehensive listing of Aussie blogs. Add yours if it's not there already.

 

And if you still don't know what a blog is, go to this blog entry at Scripting News and see what Dave Winer has to say about voice and ownership under the heading The unedited voice of a person and his earlier article at Weblogs at Harvard Law. See also Eurozine's "Blogging, the nihilist impulse" article.

We want to provide you with a one-stop intellectual surfing experience by culling good stuff from all over and putting it in one place.
