blog press

Blogging in academia is an edge of the trend topic, not often found in the news. However, today's BBC has an article on the topic. Blogging outside of education, on the other hand, is the new favorite topic of newspapers, TV's evening news, and magazines.

Here are a few other places where blogs are making headlines:

An Indian CyberNews site has an article on the blogging response to the tsunami disaster.

Wired always runs articles regarding blogs, but this one is unusually opinionated, called Like it Or Not, Blogs Have Legs. They've also recently run an article on blogging and journalism and an article on flickr, the cool new photo blogging tool.

The San Francisco newspaper SF Gate had three articles on blogs this morning: one on blogs as personal outlets, one on people getting fired for blogging about work, and one on blogs as a source of news.

An unlikely midwestern source for techy news, the Grand Forks Herald, has this article today on a ND senator-turned-blogger.
