    Thank you very much Sukhi for citation in your post . :)

    My presentation is not a global model, but rather personal experience with all the challenges I was facing with last three years during my blogging about archaelogy. Of course, mostly on Macedonian language (Cyrillic).

    Regards :)

    Hello Stultitia,

    thanks for your comment. Your right about Le site d’Irna. But I just had a 15 min., like every other participant at this conference. In the paper will be different, with description of each site or blog mentioned in my presentation, including your web blog. :)

    Hi Milozvu4na, great presenation! I can hardly wait for the publishing of the text. Please let me know when that happens. There’s only one thing I’d like to point out: Le site d’Irna is not a blog dedicated to the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun, but is a rather critical of that pseudoarchaeological project. Could it be indicated in the presentation? Thanx! Irna has fabulous geological explanations and analyses of the Visoko formations, both in English and French. Her blog is a great contributor to debunking the pseudoscientific claims of Semir Osmanagic’s followers.



    Veliki pozdrav,

    Stultitia

  20. Cultural heritage is always 'in'
  21. How to differentiate between proper science and quasi-science?
  22. How to establish the credibility of the content of a archaeological scientific blog? „ Give me a couple of facts, and I'll construct you a truth.“
    • - Using other reliable sources
    • - Logical analysis, often of multiple possibilities, including evaluation of probability of truth;
    • - Presenting arguments from all conflicting sides of the debate on teh given subject, etc.
    • The scientist's own opinion/conclusion, refraining from claims of absolute certitude
    Content
    • - Impersonal style: most scientists refrain from subjective references: there would be rarely any 'I' in the text. The style would approximate objectiveness.
    • - Proper referencing of used sources (name of the author, the publication, year of publishing, publishing house, etc.)
    • - Hyperlinks in e-texts leading to referenced data sources.
    • - Bibliography
    • - Clear non-ambiguous meaning of sentences.
    • Good spelling, absence of colloquialisms. Professional jargon accurately used.
    Style and format:
  23. Blogging science: create open access source for knowledge

  36. Colleen Morgan, Anthropology Department, University of California, Berkeley Archaeologists have been rapidly integrating new media technologies into their interpretive schemes through a variety of methods. Virtual worlds, social networking websites, blogs, wikis, and digital photo mash-ups are becoming legitimate alternate ways to present archaeological information. Lower entry points for remixing photography, film, and databases into multimodal presentations increase the potential for archaeologists to use these media to tell their own stories. This, combined with a growing ubiquity of online media platforms, allows us to reach out to new publics by integrating archaeology into a greater social sphere.
  37. Where lies the base of knowledge on Internet Conclusion:
  38. Knowledge is not just information
  39. Scientific knowledge  Raw data    Human interpretation Analysis Linking of data  Transformation  Information into knowledge  Communication  Blogging
