Blogging--it's a way of communicating on line, of sharing thoughts and
ideas, of creating a "psychic brain dump", of storing quick
impressions. What does this form of communication offer electronic arts
and literature? Is this a passing fad? An invitation to an unending
addiction? Or a literary form?

What are blogs and how can we use them?
How can blogs spread the word in electronic literature and art?
How do blogs help build the community?
