BlogHer as a resource for academics
Thanks to Rohit Bhargava's post on social media sites and tools for women, I just registered on BlogHer -- for some reason I knew it was a conference but that's all. Anyway, already found an interesting post in the Research, Academia and Education section with a link to a Chronicle story on MIT's new pre-orientation Second Life island for incoming students. As with any of these sites, I'll have to read it for a while before I decide if it's worth the time investment, but my first impression is good!
