I've just published Cites & Insights 9:8 (July 2009).
The 30-page issue, PDF as usual but with HTML versions of most essays, includes:
Bibs & Blather
Notes on sponsorship for C&I, the status of four possible future projects--and the move of Walt at Random to ScienceBlogs.
Making it Work Perspective: Thinking about Blogging 2: Why We Blog
Continuing the discussion of blogging philosophy and practice that began in Cites & Insights 9:5 with a focus on reasons for blogging.
Interesting & Peculiar Products
Seven individual items and technologies, plus eight editors' choices and group reviews. From high-def Bluetooth to whether you can call a $1,500 computer a netbook...
Perspective: On Privatization
Musings on whether Charles Dodgson had the proper theory of language (as stated by his character, noted wordsmith H. Dumpty), plus unaltered copies of the two blog posts (and most of the comments) at issue.
Trends & Quick Takes
Three trendy items: Myths and limits, "They are not your friends" and the world of plentiful bandwidth.
My Back Pages
Nine little items on nine less serious topics; as usual, this one's a bonus for those who download the issue.
Readers of this blog should see longer abstracts for some of the articles over the next few days.
