Comments on: Goals for ClioWeb http://clioweb.org/2004/10/29/goals-for-clioweb/ Just another WordPress site Wed, 01 Feb 2012 16:14:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jeremy http://clioweb.org/2004/10/29/goals-for-clioweb/#comment-18 Jeremy Mon, 01 Nov 2004 01:41:44 +0000 http://www.clioweb.org/archives/2004/10/29/goals-for-clioweb/#comment-18 Sorry I've been moderating comments before they show up on my site. I've been hit by the spam bugs this weekend, and it's getting very annoying! Dr. Kelly is a sharp guy. His fields of expertise are eastern Europe, history and new media, and pedagogy. His webography project has been used by a number of educators at all levels, and from what I've heard its been very beneficial to students. I'd be glad to keep you posted on the site's progress, though my contribution to it will be more "look and feel" visual design than content.

(I'll bookmark it and try to keep an eye on how it comes along, but it'd be nice if you could keep me posted anyway!) As it happens, I'm (slowly) writing an online guide aimed particularly at history MA students, and had an idea that it'd be great if one section could consist of pages of themed links chosen, evaluated and annotated by MA students themselves (as assessed projects). Probably won't happen, but you never know. That’s a really cool idea. (I’ll bookmark it and try to keep an eye on how it comes along, but it’d be nice if you could keep me posted anyway!)

For me, it was very strange to realize that other people were actually reading my blog, and now I feel really bad for them because my writing is so <b>boring</b>. I also noticed this week that <a href="http://hnn.us/blogs/2.html" rel="nofollow">Cliopatria</a> added a link to my site, so between that and your post I've had some serious reasons to reflect on my blog. My original purpose for ClioWeb was to share my research, throw out ideas, review literature, et cetera. So, I do sincerely thank you (and Cliopatria) for waking me up! I blame my increased attention to design on <a href="http://www.archiva.net rel="nofollow">Paula Petrik</a>, one of my profs at <a href="http://www.gmu.edu" rel="nofollow">George Mason</a>. I'm currently doing some design work on some <a href="http://chnm.gmu.edu" rel="nofollow"><abbr title="Center for History and New Media">CHNM</abbr></a>, including a redesign of Mills Kelly's <a href="http://chnm.gmu.edu/webography/index.htm" rel="nofollow">Western Civilization Webography</a> project, something that fits into your fields of expertise. You can check it out in its current state, and I'd be glad to send you a link to it when I get the redesign finished.</p> Thanks, Sharon.

I only found it a couple of weeks ago, so what I said was based only on what I'd seen in a very short space of time (when, as you pointed out the other day, you've been extremely busy with school work...). I did notice that you'd written some interesting history/research-related posts not so long ago; I suppose I was wondering too where Clioweb was likely to go in the near future! You know, it's a very strange feeling that other bloggers might take notice of what I say... Ooh! Power! (*evil laugh*) I should have added that your ‘blogtinkery’ and design work has made your site darned pretty!
