East Midlands Knowledge Network (EMKN) is an online resource which is at risk, due to the demise of regional development agencies, the imminent closure of the company upon whose server it sits and the closure of the East Midlands Universities Association (EMUA), who created the resource. However the information held on within the site (technologies, business services and facilities within EMUA’s institutions is valuable, particularly as face-to-face Business Link (BL) services are being axed and the government has indicated that the channel for publicly-funded business advice (information, advice and guidance) will be on-line. The site contains an image (“Tube Map”) that links to various parts of the site showing various service, this was felt especially important to keep.

Therefore this project looked at options on how to use free hosting sites as a way of protecting a valuable resource in an economical and sustainable way, using the EMKN as a case study. A blog (http://websitesustainability.blogspot.com/) of the progress, activities and issues was kept.

It is a growing phenomenon that journalists in Zimbabwe are blogging. Some journalists blog within the media outlet’s website, while some blogs in the public sites. This paper mainly discusses the limitation of blogs by analyzing the difference between newspaper blogs and writings on public blog platforms. I argue that the content of public blogs is markedly different from those published on newspaper blogs. This is because newspaper blogs are less individualistic and journalistic blogging on newspaper platforms is more strongly influenced by the organization to which they belong.

This chapter analyzes business networks as a part of a multi-domain innovation ecology, which includes global production and innovation ecosystems, institutional network facilitators, and local communities and users. Their interplay is a reflection of the reconfiguration of inter-sectoral relations, in which business, government, and citizens may produce collaborative synergies and, thus, contribute to growth, competitiveness, and social development. Web 2.0 is not a panacea, nor does it bring benefits automatically. On the contrary, companies need to be sensitive to the network logic and partners’ orientations in order to maximize the innovation potential of global innovation networks facilitated by social network sites and other Web 2.0 tools and services.

""Abstract
Blogs as one of the most widely used Web 2.0 applications, are globally accepted by a large number of Internet users. The educational blogs have a specific audience, purpose and goals. This research paper explores the criteria by which an educational blog can be characterized as scientific. The survey findings show that the educational blog readers regard an educational blog as scientific, taking into consideration certain criteria to which they attribute different significance. The participation of 10 experts on the field and the contribution of the unknown online educational blog readers was the cornerstone for the completion of this study. This research paper attempts to highlight some particular aspects of an issue, that, although it is one of the most widely used in the web, it has not received similar research attention, either locally or internationally. This research paper is a part of the researcher’s diploma assignment thesis for the Hellenic Open University.""

Bu çalışmanın amacı blog kullanılarak verilen web tabanlı asenkron eğitim ile laboratuvarda gösterme-yaptırma tekniği ile yapılan eğitimin, öğretmen adaylarının etkileşimli video ve blog teknolojilerini, sınıf içi öğretime entegre edebilme becerilerine yönelik içerik bilgisi düzeylerini karşılaştırmaktır. Araştırma nedensel karşılaştırma modelinde desenlenmiştir. Bu amaçla çalışmada 2011-2012 öğretim yılı bahar döneminde sınıf öğretmenliği bölümü birinci sınıfta öğrenimlerine devam eden iki gruptan, bir grup yansız atama ile deney, diğer grup da kontrol grubu olarak belirlenmiştir. Deney grubundaki öğrenciler Youtube video paylaşım sitesinde eğitim amaçlı etkileşimli videonun nasıl hazırlanacağını, kamera arkası görüntülerle, adım adım anlatan bir blog sayfası yardımı ile öğrenirken, kontrol grubundaki öğrenciler laboratuvarda öğretim elemanını gözlemleyip, kendileri de uygulayarak öğrenim görmüşlerdir. Öğrenme sürecinin başında ve sonunda uygulanan ve konuya ilişkin kazanımları ölçen içerik edinimi testlerinin değerlendirilmesi sonucunda hem deney hem de kontrol grubundaki öğrencilerin eğitim amaçlı etkileşimli video hazırlamaya yönelik içerik bilgilerini artırdıkları tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca deney ya da kontrol grubunda olmanın bu artışta anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda öğretmen adaylarının eğitiminde bu çalışmadaki gibi işlem basamaklarının net bir şekilde belirlenebildiği eğitim durumlarında zamandan tasarruf ve öğretmen adaylarının tekrar yapmalarına olanak sağlayabilmek amacıyla web tabanlı asenkron öğrenme materyallerinin kullanılabileceği vurgulanmıştır.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study is to compare the learning outcomes between a blog based asynchronous instruction and a demonstration technique in computer lab. The content of the course was about the integration of interactive YouTube videos into classroom instruction. A causal-comparative research design was employed in the study with a sample of 71 participants that were freshmen students in Primary School Education in 2012 spring term. There were two existing group in the study. First group received blog based asynchronous instruction where instructor provided a step by step instruction with videos and the second group received instruction in the computer lab where instructor demonstrate how to prepare and integrate interactive educational YouTube videos. A content knowledge test was administered both at the beginning and end of the course. The data showed that both groups significantly improved their content knowledge acquisition about the educational interactive video integration while no significant difference was observed between the post-test scores of the groups. The results highlighted the employment of blog based asynchronous instruction where the course objectives are eligible for a step by step instruction. The results also highlighted that using web based asynchronous instruction may provide several benefits in terms of knowledge acquisition in preservice teachers’ education.

Keywords: blog, web based asynchronous instruction, preservice teachers’ education, interactive video.

A primary role of Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) is to facilitate industry access to market intelligence and to ensure that operators understand their markets (both existing and emerging). Web logs, or blogs, are a relatively new form of market intelligence arising from peer to peer communication over the internet. The extent to which the content of blogs may augment DMO activities is unknown but is likely to depend on operator predisposition to e-strategies in general. This study reports on a survey of Kitzbühel Tourism operator’s current online strategies andtheir level of awareness about blogs. The results show, while a core of businesses already monitor blogs in a strategic way, they may be struggling to meaningfully apply the fruits of these activities. A role for DMOs like Kitzbühel Tourism in moving operators forward in this area is identified. It is hoped that the practitioner’s articulation of this role will provide other DMOs with ideas for the strategic use of what is currently a relatively untapped source of market information.

While it might seem to be pretty self-explanatory from the title, this issue really explores some crucial issues about blogging while providing glimpses of sites that might escape scrutiny. For example, it has an essay about blogging in the "panopticon" that is Iran and an another that likes at the role of blogging in the lives of adolescent girls in Israel. In short, it looks at blogging as an everyday experience, something that is lived and performed at the most quotidian level. Fascinating stuff, really!

"This study used data from a survey of city government reporters at US metropolitan daily newspapers to test the 2008 Lowrey and Mackay model of occupational competition. The results
indicate that as the quality of Internet competition (as perceived by the US city hall reporters) increased, reporters were more likely to report stories they might have missed and were more
likely to increase the number of city government stories. This study also suggests that the perceptions of the reporters as well as the perceptions of editors play a role in the reaction to
occupational competition and that city government reporters were affected more by the perceived quality of competitors’ coverage than by the number of news outlets providing that coverage."

Corporate blog is a form of blog that is used by companies in the world as a medium of communication and delivery of corporate opinion. However, the development of these blogs is decreasing with the emergence of various forms of social media like twitter, though the blog actually has a different role compared to other social media in conveying the message and the opinion of the company. This study was aimed to analyze the obtained value of the company's corporate blog and the factors that support corporate blog that continues to exist and used to date. In order to achieve our aim, we conducted qualitative  research by doing deep interview to three consulting firms in Indonesia that are still actively using a corporate blog. The interviews were conducted to analyze the firms practice in managing the corporate blog in terms of motivation of use, functionality, writing ideas and concepts, constraints, policies and their impact on the organization. We found several key important innovation features in the blog usage, particularly to show company’s identity as consulting firm, to engage company with its clients and society, to prepare and educate its employees in order to be known by society, and to walk the talk for increasing client confidence of company’s intellectuality. In addition, we also successfully mapped these practices to success factors or corporate blog, which include: support of top management, the evangelist, educate employee related corporate blog, the clear purpose, firm commitment, policies and rules, as well as dialogue with consumers.

Educators have reported a number of benefits for language learners keeping blogs; however, none of the available research focuses on the potential for a blog to be a medium for reflecting on learning. This paper draws on preliminary data collected from female Japanese college students. Twenty-two students kept voluntary blogs in their free time throughout a semester they spent studying English in the UK. The students usually wrote about everyday activities, but they also used their blogs to write their reflections about their language learning. In particular, the students discussed feelings about their exam results, occasions when they were disappointed in their spoken English, goals that they set for themselves and ways in which their classroom learning helped them in everyday situations. The findings suggest that blogs could be one tool for educators to use in order to encourage students to reflect on their learning.
