Re: [Air-l] Comparison web pages with blogs

I am looking for some literature to compare traditional web pages with web logs in terms of publishers and functions. Some might say web logs are also web pages. However, I think the differences between them are more than just technical differences.

see, especially Herring, S. C., Scheidt, L. A., Bonus, S., and Wright, E. (2005). Weblogs as a bridging genre. Information, Technology & People, 18(2), 142-171. Preprint pdf available at: http://www.blogninja.com/it&p.final.pdf we'd be delighted to correspond with you w.r.t. the genre aspects in particular. enjoy! --elijah
