Literacy Weblog offers an abundance of terrific, smart, and thought provoking links, plus it has the backlinks in effect. Too bad it has no RSS subscription option, but you can't have everything. I found this via Dr. Laurel Clyde's article on blogging at FreePint. Clyde also has an academic web page about blogs -- the first I've seen. While I'm at it, Clyde also provides links to more great sites, including: Crag's Booknotes: I think I've been here before, but again, since it has no subscription option I'm less likely to make it a daily read. I need to change that. Saturday's entries offer a wealth of great links to the ongoing developments in post 9-11 investigations, accusations, etc. The highlight is the full text of Georgia Democrat Cynthia McKinney's statement on terrorist warnings. McKinney says: Because I love my country, because I am a patriot, and because the American people deserve the truth, I believe it would be dangerous, loony and irresponsible not to hold full congressional hearings on any warnings the Bush Administration had before the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Ever since I came to Congress in 1992, there are those who have been trying to silence my voice. I've been told to "sit down and shut up" over and over again. Well, I won't sit down and I won't shut up until the full and unvarnished truth is placed before the American people. Go McKinney! Scholarly Electronic Publishing Weblog: The title is pretty self-explanatory. One of the only blogs I've seen to actually link to The Chronicle of Higher Education. The Laughing Librarian: Great library humor... Here's a taste. 7:56:05 AM
