Your old stuff is gold, so don’t let it languish in the textile pits forever.

Congratulations and good luck with your tenure review. If an outside letter detailing your work here’s value for the creation and maintenance of interdisciplinary community would be of any value, this historian will be happy to oblige.

I put references to John’s and my blog in my current promotion file. It’s in the professional development section but I might also have put it under community service. I also offprinted a series of posts preparatory to a conference presentation under scholarship. I think these things work if you frame it all properly in the narrative as a substantive supplement to the more traditionally peer-reviewed kinda stuff.

Ah now there’s a bloggable question. I think I am going to list it under ‘public outreach’. Its too bad, though — I’ve spent literally megabytes of time working on this instead of ‘publications’.

Sweet! You obviously have more pressing concerns right now but you could go ahead and make the move to XHTML…

Are you planning to work the blog into your tenure file? Surely it is worth as least as much as a book review to your department, school, and the discipline.
