Attack of the Career-Killing Blogs
Attack of the Career-Killing Blogs - When academics post online, do they risk their jobs? By Robert S. Boynton. Yes, it's true, what I always suspected, blogs can kill (careers).
Rather than seeing them as a way of creating new spaces of debate and dissent, some academics probably think they're out of control. And they're right. I don't publish my scholarly writing here, I test out ideas here and complete thoughts that I may not otherwise have the space to expand on in more academic writing. One hardly replaces the other. I very much appreciate the efforts of other bloggers, most of them not academics.
