CommunityData:Blog post schedule
We have a blog! Our goal is to post on our blog every week.
Contributing to the blog[edit]
Anyone in the group can contribute to our blog. We generally blog for three reasons: (1) as a way to engage in public scholarship and to build our profile, (2) to put our (initial) ideas into the world, and (3) to celebrate our successes. Examples of blog posts include easy-to-read summaries of research papers, cool announcements; regular updates about lab activities, and reviews of papers or events.
Generally, contributing to the blog takes the following steps:
1. Write blog post in the word processor of your preference.
2. Put on your blog as a draft on the back-end of the blog (i.e., on the WordPress). Make sure your blog contains an image or photo (with alt-text), has a scheduled publication date of at least one week, and is automatically getting tweeted out directly.
3. Make an announcement in IRC that you have drafted a blog, asking others to proofread it.
If you do not know how to get to the back-end of the WordPress or you do not have a login to the WordPress, please ask Madison, a senior PhD student, or a faculty advisor.
Schedule[edit]
In order to make sure that everyone has a chance to have their voice heard on the blog, I (Madison) have randomly assigned everyone to one week where they are assigned to write a post.
Blog posts should be related to the group somehow, but that relationship can be somewhat tenuous. You can write about projects — something you've recently published or are working on — but you can also write about something you've read, something you've learned, reflections on academic life, etc.
Of course, if you'd like to write more blog posts then go for it!
