In reference to recent discussion, here and here:
In previous posts (here, for example) I made reference to the insufficiency of blogrolls for linking the history-related blogs . If it is certain that, according to Brad DeLong, the academic blogosphere is an invisible college, then that college is look like the visible ones: they aren’t see each other. In order to make one small survey with William Turkel of Digital History Hacks (about “historical blogs”), we have sent the request to more than 150 blogs. We know this is insufficient: to linking the blogs is necessary to “conquest” a few issues in common, beyond the languages.
Although this will only a) instructions about software to explore RSS feeds and 2) a .opml file!
The proposal of a wiki by Crooked Timber is, no doubt , a very good idea. It is necessary to consider, nevertheless, that they are more blogs beyond the campus…in spite of my pidgin english.
