It seems there has been a new intensity if not renewed interest in the matter. Also, we cannot say for certain but a revival of awareness has accompanied the apparent increase in writing on the subject. Although there is still a divergence of opinion, one cannot emphatically deny some progress has been made even though it is difficult to define and determine the direction.

The hermeneutics of blogging: What a subject! It occurs to me that my blog takes on almost everyone of the above noted characteristics of blog genre. I have felt for quite some time that the internet could completely change academics and scholarship as we know it. For example, why submit an academic work to a publisher who will probably suggest changes that may not suit the author, and then take the time to run it through the presses and promote and distribute the work - and on top of it charge a very tidy sum of cash? With the internet academic works can be submited at the touch of a button and available for anyone to digest - all for free. The author can then receive feedback and interact with reactions to the work. Most academics don't realize the impact their ideas can have. Scot McKnight and Doug Groothuis are a couple of names that come to mind: academics who become blogging rockstars almost overnight based on their previous credentials. Excellent topic!
