Academic Blogging

I wanted to point you to two interesting essays about the pros and cons of academic blogging;An Enthusiast’s View of Academic Blogs and, A Skeptic’s Take on Academic Blogs.

Finally, if you take a look on the right column of this blog you'll find a category; "blogs of note." Have a look around and tell me what you think. In particular, have a look at, Public Reason. This is a blog for political theorist which is limited to Ph.d's working in the field. As a new blog they are dealing with some interesting organizational and operational issues which are important for those of us looking to build our own community.
