The measure of blogging in academic publishing | Higher Education Network | Guardian Professional
Some great comments by @jennifermjones esp this: "I could not care less if nobody reads it, I don't do it for anyone other than me, and don't see the view counts or the comments as a measure of its impact or value. But I guess once this space is folded back into the dominant system, then we are going to see the dominant measures come to play."

Publishing Now IS the Semantic Web - Today's Histories
"RDF is structured data without investment in implementation-bound schemas. That's a mouthful. With RDF data, you decide how a data element "lives" inside a triple store (or the tripleverse) without tables, without the trappings of schema management in relational databases the need to form document definitions in markup like XML. Instead, data modelling itself is a first-class citizen of the data in RDF. Real-time metadata delivery makes publishers the proper source of data provenance. In the old book model, we relied on public subsidies in the form of libraries to create permanent metadata about books. Now that we rely on metadata to sell constantly, we need much more metadata up-front, and need it maintained throughout the lifecycle of a product. "
