Hello Humanists,

Adrian mentioned aoir.org, and looking at their site, I see a conference in
Toronto this coming October. The whole thing is dedicated to Internet
research, and there are at least a few panels on blogging. More
information, including a link to a detailed program schedule, is at:

http://www.ecommons.net/aoir/

Also, Gerda and Willard write:

Jill Walker, whom Adrian also mentioned, has written a definition of
"weblog" on her, well, weblog. This will go into an encyclopedia of
narrative theory, which looks interesting as a whole. The URL of the post is:

And while I'm on a roll with URLs, I've finally written up ACH/ALLC
2003. It's a very personal account; I do not pretend to have covered
everything or even everything that's important. But for what it's worth,
if anyone is interested, the post is at

Humbly,
