Blog + Portal = Blortal = Meta-Blog

One of the roots of blogs was in the lists of interesting sites for a particular field. But blogs are now so numerous that we need metablogs - lists of blogs within a particular area. Here's one, offering a fine collection of academic blogs, arranged by subject in a wiki. It calls itself a portal, though blortal might be more appropriate.

    It's crazy, in a good way. but scary to think about how new ideas in the future will be socially assimilated into community
