Biblioblogging at the SBL

While some would perhaps not count the Philo of Alexandria Blog among the biblioblogs, it is in fact, a blog that is as close as possible to this group. As Philo is primarily an expositor of the Scriptures, a blog dealing with Philo's works would necessarily also have to deal with the same Scriptures, and indeed, the New Testament too.

At the SBL Annual Meeting this year in Philadelphia, there will be a CARG Session on biblioblogging:Computer Assisted Research Section
Theme: The Pleasures, Pains and Prospects for Biblioblogging (S20-12)
Sunday, November 20th, 9:00am — 11: 00am

The phenomenon of "blogging", the maintenance of a regular online journal or weblog, has proliferated massively in recent times. As in all areas of life, political, religious, cultural, art, entertainment and media, so too in the area of academic Biblical Studies, the blog is an informative, innovative, up-to-the-minute way of discovering more about the subject, discussing the latest developments, interacting on controversial topics and enjoying the lighter side of the discipline. These "biblioblogs" are now widely consulted by those in the guild, and are contributing something of interest and intelligence. But what is the future of the biblioblogs? What is their scope for development? This session gathers together a panel of pioneers in this area."
