Can we imagine a form of peer-review bloglets on focused themes for fixed durations that would be around multimedia and humanities computing? Here is the idea I put to Steve.

\nI have been playing around with blogs. Lian set up Movable Type for me on strange.mcmaster.ca and I have been reading about them. It occurs to me that we could have a regular bloglet feature for T.T.Online. It would work like this:<\/p>\n
1. We would advertise regularly (once a year?) for bloggers in humanities computing. Proposals would include the following:<\/p>\n
1.1 A theme for the bloglet that is interesting and suitable for a bloglet.
\n1.2 An example of what the first couple of posts would be.
\n1.3 A short biographical statement
\n1.5 A commitment to regularly post to the bloglet for a fixed amount of time on the theme
\n1.4 And a bibliography for the bloglet.<\/p>\n
2. We would peer-review these (and probably invite some too in order to get it started.) We would encourage people to choose themes that are research areas\/questions they are working on. We would look for bloglets that run between 2 weeks to a month with a post ever two days. <\/p>\n
3. Two or three times a year we would run one of these invited or peer-reviewed bloglets. They would be “live” research explorations of a theme that would allow someone suitable to work out an idea in community. <\/p>\n
4. We would turn commenting on so that others could comment as the bloglet runs. This would both provide a dialogical dimension along with giving the blogger feedback on the ideas. <\/p>\n
5. Before each bloglet runs we would advertise heavily to get people to subscribe. Part of the trick is that these would run for a limited time and be run by interesting people on neat ideas. Thus it would be like subscribing to a short term focused discussion list.<\/p>\n
6. There would be a clear IP statement that allows us, at the end, to repackage the bloglet (including comments) as an archive on TT.Online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
