John Daly on Blogging
John Daly has written an interesting essay called "Blogging for Development," which can be accessed from the Development Gateway site. If nothing else, the essay comes with great links, including one on Ph.D. weblogs.
There are a number of blogs that are specifically relevant to ICT for Development. For example, Geoffrey Kirkman, who was the Managing Editor of the Global Information Technology Report 2001-2002, has a blog. Steve Cisler is one of the people most active in bringing Internet access to communities worldwide, and his blog, Glocal, is a useful addition to the materials he has placed on the Web on his home page and other sites. Bret Fausett, a Los Angeles lawyer, maintains a blog about the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) activities. ZeroCostComputing (by Jason Nolan, Julia Dicum, and Jasjit Sangha) is "an exploration of issues surrounding technology and the digital divide from a perspective that we call Zero Cost Computing."
