Ackland, Robert (May 20, 2005). Mapping the U.S. Political Blogosphere: Are Conservative Bloggers More Prominent? Presented at the meeting of the Blogtalk Downunder, Sydney. Abstract: Weblogs are now a key part of online culture, and social scientists are interested in characterising the networks formed by bloggers and measuring their extent and impact in areas such as politics. However, researchers wishing to conduct quantitative social science analysis of the blogging phenomenon are faced with the challenge of using new methods of data collection and analysis largely derived from fields outside of the social sciences, such as the information sciences. This paper presents an overview of one new approach for collecting and analysing weblog data, and illustrates this approach in the context of a preliminary quantitative analysis of online networks formed by a sample of North-American "A-list" political bloggers. There are two aims to this paper. First is to assess (using different data and methods) the conclusion of Adamic and Glance (2005) in their paper titled ("The political blogosphere and the 2004 U.S. election: Divided they blog") that there are significant differences in the behaviour of liberal and conservative bloggers, with the latter forming more dense patterns of linkages. We find broad support for this conclusion, and empirically assess the implications of differences in conservative/liberal linking behaviour for the online visibility of different political messages or ideologies. The second aim is to highlight the role of web mining and data visualisation in the analysis of weblogs, and the opportunities and challenges inherent in this new field of research.

Abstract: Weblogs link together in a complex structure through which new ideas and discourse can flow. Such a structure is ideal for the study of the propagation of information. In this paper we describe general categories of information epidemics and create a tool to infer and visualize the paths specific infections take through the network. This inference is based in part on a novel utilization of data describing historical, repeating patterns of infection. We conclude with a description of a new ranking algorithm, iRank, for blogs. In contrast to traditional ranking strategies, iRank acts on the implicit link structure to find those blogs that initiate these epidemics. Allbritton, Christopher (Fall 2003). Blogging from Iraq.

Neural Computing & Applications, 13(2), 149-157 Abstract: Many attempts have been made to track web usage patterns and provide dynamic suggestions that might help users reach the information they seek more quickly. These mechanisms rely on mining the web log files for usage patterns. While this is easy for a single server, it would be much more difficult for multiple servers. We propose a mechanism that uses agent-based technologies and dynamic self-organizing maps to combine usage patterns in multiple web server logs and structures of multiple web sites to provide a more efficient and informative set of suggested links.

  • Web 2.0 Storytellingemergence of a New Genre by Bryan Alexander and Alan Levine
    Teaching and Learning Web 2.0 StorytellingEmergence of a New Genre By Bryan Alexander and Alan Levine story has a beginning, a middle, and a cleanly wrapped-up end- ing. Whether told around a campfire, read from a book, or played on a DVD, a story goes from point A to B and then C. It follows a trajectory, a Freytag Pyramid—perhaps the line of a human life or the stages of the hero’s journey. A story is told by one person or by a creative team to an audience that is usually quiet, even receptive. Or at least that’s what a story used to be, and that’s how a story used to be told. Today, with digital net- Aworks and social media, this pattern is changing. Stories now are open-ended, branching, hyperlinked, cross-media, participatory, exploratory, and unpre- dictable. And they are told in new ways: Web 2.0 storytelling picks up these new types of stories and runs with them, accelerating the pace of creation and participation while revealing new directions for narratives to flow.

  • Blogs and the Narrativity of Experience
    Blogs and the Narrativity of Experience José Ángel García Landa Universidad de Zaragoza [email protected] http://www.garcialanda.net Blogs and the Narrativity of Experience This paper undertakes an analysis of the narrativity of a form of discourse which has appeared recently (blogs) within the framework of an emergentist theory of narrativity and its discursive modes. The narrative/discursive characteristics of blogs emerge from a preexistent ground of more basic or less specific communicative practices; and narrative discursivity itself is an emergent phenomenon with respect to other cognitive and experiential phenomena. A number of formal and communicative characteristics of blog writing and of the blogosphere are discussed as emergent modes of experience within the pragmatic context of computer-mediated communication. _________________ 1 We shall undertake an analysis of the narrativity proper to a discursive form of recent appearance, weblogs or blogs, within the framework of an emergentist theory of narrativity and of its discursive modes. The narrative- discursive characteristics of blogs emerge from a prior basis of simpler or less specific communicative practices. And the narrativity of discourse is itself an emergent phenomenon with respect to other cognitive and experiential phenomena which necessarily underpin it, and are the basis on which its emergent nature must be defined. That is to say, there must be processes first, in order for processual representations to exist, and these representations must exist in simple forms before they give rise to complex narrative forms, associated to specific cultural and communicational contexts—for instance, the development of computer-mediated communicative interaction on the Web. Processes - Representations - Narratives - Narratologies Let us begin with absolute generality—with the narrativity of experience itself, situating narratives, and narratology, within an emergentist/evolutionary theory of reality.

Evidently, enough people were making podcasts, listening to them, or at least uttering the word podcast in everyday contexts to warrant the accolade. Despite occasioning a media sensation, the actual extent of podcasting is still unknown. According to a PEW Internet and American Life survey (Rainie and Madden, 2005) – still the most substantive publication about podcasting trends – approximately 6 million of the 22 million U.S.

  • Christopher Lydon's Topic
    The Transom Review Vol. 1/Issue 13 Christopher Lydon’s Topic About Christopher Lydon Christopher Lydon has been an unconventional voice in print and broadcast journalism for more than 30 years-covering presidential politics in the Washington bureau of the New York Times; anchoring the “Ten O'Clock News” on WGBH, public television in Boston; and as the founder and host of "The Connection" at WBUR since 1994. He "blends the expansiveness of the Renaissance thinker with a trademark Boston toughness," the Boston Globe observes. Born in Boston in 1940, he graduated from the Roxbury Latin School and Yale. Lydon ran for mayor of Boston in 1993 in a citizens' campaign for radical school reform. Christopher Lydon Links Christopher Lydon's Website www.christopherlydon.org "The Connection" Archives www.theconnection.org A Word From Jay Allison September 21, 2001 It may seem an odd time to focus on craft, but craft is often what gets you through. The ability to do the job well is always important, and especially in a crisis. Further, our chosen work -- radio -- is essential in any modern crisis. Much depends on our skill, more than we sometimes know. Certainly radio is important as a lifeline, a communication link, but also... for conversation, for connection. If you live within earshot of Boston -- or anywhere else “The Connection” aired under Christopher Lydon's hostship -- you know he is one of the finest practitioners of the radio talk show craft, ever. Copyright 2001 Atlantic Public Media The Transom Review – Vol.1/ Issue 13 There were days listening to that program where the primary response was a feeling of gratitude.

Oggi sono presenti più di 152 milioni di blog1, di cui quasi la metà proviene dagli Stati Uniti2, seguiti dall'Europa, l'Oceania, l'America latina, il nord America, il sud Asia, l'Asia dell'est, il Medioriente e l'Africa. La maggior parte dei blogger raggiungono un'età media compresa tra i 25 e i 40 anni, mentre solo un terzo supera i 44 anni; il 37% dei lavoratori a tempo pieno indica il blog come principale fonte di guadagno3, perciò tende ad aggiornarlo più frequentemente rispetto ad altre categorie, come gli hobbisti, i lavoratori part-time e i lavoratori dipendenti: il 26% dei rispondenti sostiene di arrivare a pubblicare tre post al giorno.

  • Blog Fiction: the Relational Poetics of a Distributed Narrative Form
    Blog Fiction: The Relational Poetics of a Distributed Narrative Form by Emma Segar A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Edge Hill University. Submitted October 2015 1 Abstract This analysis explores blog fiction as a distributed narrative form, and the relational nature of the reading and writing processes that shape its poetics. It does this primarily through the analysis of Bad Influences1, the blog fiction that forms the creative part of this thesis. Bad Influences tells a disaster story distributed over four separate fictional blogs, exploring online identities, friendships, and how our relations to the world and our communities are shaped by the stories we tell about ourselves. Jill Walker Rettberg’s ideas on distributed narrative2 are used to investigate blog fiction’s distributions in time, space and authorship, and how these affect its narrative time, linearity, interactivity and poetics. The processes of writing and posting Bad Influences, and engaging with its readers, show how the use of the blog as a medium determines the characteristics of blog fiction as a form, and how the relations that emerge between readers, writers and the text produce, in Aukje van Rooden’s term, a relational poetics.3 This analysis concludes with an application of relational poetics to blog fiction and digital interactive fiction in general, touching upon emerging forms of fiction on social media platforms (e.g. Twitter fiction and interactive multiplayer narrative apps), in which relational processes are an essential component of the text, rather than simply a means to its access.

This self is of course a multiply constructed subjectivity: there is the me that teaches, the me that attends endless meetings, the me that you might meet at a conference, the me that you could run into on the street.
