Weblog publishing systems. NetNewsWire Pro has a pop-up menu of weblog publishing systems. When you’re configuring NetNewsWire to post to your weblog, you choose the software you’re using.

My intent is to list all systems that support one or both of the Blogger API and MetaWeblog API or are Blosxom-compatible.

In the next release I’ll add Antville and b2 to the list. Current systems listed are Blogger, Blosxom, Conversant, Drupal, Manila (News Items), Movable Type, pMachine, Radio UserLand, and SnipSnap.

What other systems should be added? Are any missing from the list? [inessential.com]

Information Technologies and International Development is a new journal from MIT Press. It has issued a call for papers for its first issue (Fall 2003), and welcomes papers on "access and accessibility" among other topics. [FOS News]

Information Technologies and International Development will be the premier journal in its field, focusing on the intersection of information and communication technologies (ICT) with international development. We aim to create a networked community of leading thinkers and strategists to discuss the critical issues of ICT and development, an epistemic community that crosses disciplines (especially technologists and social scientists), national boundaries, and the North and South hemispheres. The audience for Information Technologies and International Development will come from academia, the private sector, NGOs, and government. It will attract readers interested in the "other four billion" [^] the share of the world population whose countries are not yet widely connected to the Internet nor widely considered in the design of new information technologies. The journal will be informative, lively, and provocative. The MIT Press will publish this exciting new quarterly periodical from July 2003.

Sounds great, now if we can get something published about access to collaboraive tools, new paradigms in teaching and assessment, and using disruptive technologies such as blogs

Intermedia here in Bergen are running a project using blogs in education and research, and they have a blog for the project (as one should) called Collogatories. [Jill/txt]

Several interesting thoughts over there. In particular a post titled "What do blogs have to do with education?".
