Structured Blogging and Journal Articles
Filed under: Uncategorized. Tags: journalarticle, structuredblogging.
Structured Blogging was just updated to version 1.pre13, and one of the changes is apparently a new content type (well, it may have been in 1.pre12 - I skipped a version) that supports a structured review of a journal article.
This could be quite useful in academic blogging. Imagine a spider that crawls the blogs of your students (or of students and professors across the ’sphere), indexing journal article reviews. It could make it very easy to share notes and thoughts on an article, or to create a distributed journal bibliography for communities of practice…
Here’s a screenshot of a mockup journal article review (for a journal that happened to be sitting on my desk):

link for Structured Blogging- it’s a plug in for WordPress and moveable type.
Doh. I meant to link the first mention of Structured Blogging to the website. Oops. That’s been fixed…
I have an academic blog and this will be fantastic. Thanks a bunch!
Hi Darcy:
We can also take this a step further by having vendors intergrate the reviews into their databases. This way, all reviewed articles can be shared by all scholarly researchers across the world. Since the data is structured, it would be an easy fit.
The same goes for book reviews and online catalogs.

Steven, that’s a great idea. In theory, this would provide a way for researchers to share reviews in a way that just isn’t possible now. Fun stuff can happen when the walls of the silos are opened up…
