I'd have questions about ethics of writing about other people on your blogs actually - more than about citation.... but then how is that different from when people discuss each other unethically in public spaces anyway? r At 12:07 PM 10/6/2003 +1000, you wrote:

As to ethics of citation, I see blogs just like any other web site, and hence different from listserves which often have stated quotation rules.
yep, i'd agree. the format I've always suggested to students is that http resources should be treated much like journals in terms of what sorts of information ought to be recorded, how, and where. i send my students to: http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/publications/web_citation.html
though Janice R. Walker's guidelines are the most rigorous and thorough that I know of: http://www.columbia.edu/cu/cup/cgos/idx_basic.html
personally i don't see that citing a blog is any different to citing any other http resource.
