Weblogs in den Geisteswissenschaften - Oder: Vom Entstehen einer neuen Forschungskultur - I. Wissenschaftsblogs als angewandte Forschung: Wo stehen wir?, Melissa was relatively late to blogging – beginning to blog in 2005, believing it was part of her academic role to use the type of technologies often talked about. In this paper she will give some personal reflections on the role, impact, and benefits in maintaining a personal academic blog, the relationship of blogs to micro-blogging (such as twitter) and how actively maintaining a digital presence can benefit an academic’s career.
