Scholars say Weblogs Pass Communication Test

By Blog Bloke on May 29th, 2004 | 1 Comment

“Blogologists” assembled to discuss how blogs are changing academia, politics and traditional journalism. They see them as being important, but school is still out on whether they are journalism.

Are Weblogs a passing fad or a revolutionary new form of communication and publishing? That’s still an open question, but the presence of blogs in the academic environment makes it more likely that they’ll survive and thrive in the long term.

~~~
Bloke’s thought for today. If Blogs aren’t a form of journalism, then why do so many alleged ‘journalists’ have blogs?

I do believe that blogs help students grow in many ways including communication. it helps them strive to be more social and open minded than their peers.
