Someone else has the same problem about blogging

Apart from posting links, I’ve not been writing here much. Partly that has been through lack of attention, in part because I have been posting (occasionally) on my other blog, but there’s also been another factor – I’m busy with lots of interesting things at work, but have not felt able to write about them. Neil [...]

Another blog

One of the reasons I’ve been quiet in this blog has been that I have started another blog specifically focused on Managing Successful Programmes. When I set that blog up, I was planning on attending a training course in June on Managing Successful Programmes (MSP), leading (hopefully) to the practitioner certificatation. MSP is the UK [...]

Qumana re-visited

Having mentioned Qumana in a recent post, the ever-vigilant Qumana team picked up on my comment and asked if I’d look again at the tool. As I promised, here is a note of my re-visit. In the spirit of the thing, this post is written using the tool (3.0.0-b2 Beta). The two things that put me [...]

Does it work?

New on the blogroll is The “Does it Work?” Diary from my friend Clare Walker. She’s taken on the challenge of documenting “Which personal development techniques actually work”, and amongst other things is documenting a self-experiment on the positive affect on mood obtained by abstaining from watching television news. She says: I’m not certain why this [...]

Patterns of Blog Posts

Amy Gahran has started documenting patterns of blog posts. 3 of 7 posted so far. I think this a type 2!

Blogwalk IV – developing the work

Suw Charman's done a great job of capturing the 11 core themes from the Blogwalk "Window Wiki". As people reflect on the event there is discussion about how to best develop the ideas from this session and how to ensure better learning next time.

How blog and wiki fit together (for me)

The roles of a personal wiki and a blog in combination

Testing Meme Propagation In Blogspace: Add Your Blog!

This posting is a community experiment that tests how a meme, represented by this blog posting, spreads across blogspace, physical space and time. It will help to show how ideas travel across blogs in space and time and how blogs are connected. It may also help to show which blogs are most influential in the propagation of memes. The dataset from this experiment will be public, and can be located via Google (or Technorati) by doing a search for the GUID for this meme (as098398298250swg9e98929872525389t9987898tq98wteqtgaq62010920352598gawst).

Still here

In between working too hard and squeezing in odd days off to use up holiday I seem to have been spending most of my time doing things which either I can't/won't blog about or which haven't stimulated any blogging-related thought! The online Action Research 'course':http://www.scu.edu.au/schools/gcm/ar/areol/areolhome.html I mentioned 'earlier':http://www.synesthesia.co.uk/blog/archives/action_research/000289.php has kicked off - there have been two modules published. Traffic on the discussion group seems so far to be about 10 emails per day, mostly still intros of participants. I can however see that I shall have to explicitly schedule time to take this in, work with the materials, contribute to the groups.

Showing your face

“Andy Borrows(Older and growing…)”:http://olderandgrowing.blogspot.com/ has discovered the soul of a writer inside an engineer. One of his better recent pieces is as a “guest writer(Heart @ Work)”:http://www.heartatwork.blogspot.com/2004_02_01_heartatwork_archive.html#107579760624826228 on “Heart at Work(Heart at Work: Lois Annich’s weblog)”:http://www.heartatwork.blogspot.com, in which he ends with a metaphor that works superbly for me too… It struck me that blogging is like [...]

Towards Structured Blogging

Sébastien Paquet: Towards Structured Blogging. And of course this post is an example of that which he describes – pinging as it does both KMPings and the Blog-Network Metablog Technorati Tags: Knowledge_Management, Meta_Blogging

Blogs as stories

In Blogs and Knowledge Sharing, Ton picks up the story of why we do this by considering blogs as story-telling – more specifically a way of telling the story of how the writer has discovered some knowledge complete with all the false leads and wrong turns.

Why do we do this?

Thoughts about the perennial "why do I blog"

Summer’s over, time to start blogging again

I think I’ve discovered that Blogging is a dark-months sport for me! Anyway, I’m back… for a while at least! Technorati Tags: Meta_Blogging

Writer’s block?

I think I may need to turn to Gary Turner’s Insure-a-blog service… Here at Insure-a-blog our team of crack (addicted) ghostwriters are at your disposal, ready to fill that inevitable of all inevitables, the day when you have nothing worthwhile to say on your weblog. Perish the thought that such an horrific thing could ever happen [...]

Traffic

Scobleizer has this to say today: Is weblogging all about the traffic? [...]If all you measure is traffic aimed at your head, then you’ve gone astray. [...] To me, it’s “what can I learn by visiting you?” Do you entertain? Teach? Inspire? [...]I’d like to measure my weblogging success some other way. Technorati Tags: Meta_Blogging

Blog Tennis

Gert at mad musings of me(uk) has just defined this sport as checking your site stats and then hitting on the site of anybody who has come to you from their stats…in the hope that they will check their stats again and come back to your site in the hope that you will check your stats [...]
