it needs to be recognized that blogging 'conversations' are a natural evolution of the listserv conversations of the 90s …#CritBlogArch

— rogueclassicist ~ david meadows (@rogueclassicist) May 27, 2015

listserv conversations tended to be sparse and only participated in by a few 'regulars'; similiter now on blogs #CritBlogArch

— rogueclassicist ~ david meadows (@rogueclassicist) May 27, 2015

what can't be measured is how many conversations in real life are sparked by blogs … "didja see what blogguy said on …" #CritBlogArch

ideally academic blogs and social media provide a convenient foil for dealing with the nutty claims often attached to arky #CritBlogArch

— rogueclassicist ~ david meadows (@rogueclassicist) May 27, 2015

there is a responsibility to debunk, I think, whenever it's required and blogging/social media provide the simplest platform #CritBlogArch

— rogueclassicist ~ david meadows (@rogueclassicist) May 27, 2015

academic blogs are also greatly needed to critically examine what the popular press is (and isn't) saying about recents finds #CritBlogArch

— rogueclassicist ~ david meadows (@rogueclassicist) May 27, 2015

judging/justifying blogging solely on whether it counts as a 'publication' is preWWii style thinking #CritBlogArch
