Let the Voices be Heard!
Dave Winer posts on What makes a weblog a weblog?
He says….
The personalities of the writers come through. That is the essential element of weblog writing, and almost all the other elements can be missing, and the rules can be violated, imho, as long as the voice of a person comes through, it’s a weblog.
I really like the thought of this being the essential element of weblog writing and I hope we can make this a reality in the way we use weblogs in education. Think of all those student voices coming through, think what we can learn….
He goes on to catalog features of a weblog and a definition that he says only a mathematician could love. It’s helpful to me to see this all laid out in a coherent fashion.
