This document discusses the use of blogging in archaeology to create open access sources of knowledge. It outlines how blogs differ from traditional printed journals in being more flexible, dynamic, and interactive. Blogs allow for personal perspectives and opinions to be shared, and facilitate online discussion and debate within the archaeology community. However, blogs also face issues of being ephemeral. The document emphasizes that scientific knowledge requires more than just sharing information - it involves analyzing, interpreting, and linking raw data through communication. By blogging one's expertise, archaeologists can transform information into open access knowledge.

38. Colleen Morgan, Anthropology Department, University of California, Berkeley Archaeologists have been rapidly integrating new media technologies into their interpretive schemes through a variety of methods. Virtual worlds, social networking websites, blogs, wikis, and digital photo mash-ups are becoming legitimate alternate ways to present archaeological information. Lower entry points for remixing photography, film, and databases into multimodal presentations increase the potential for archaeologists to use these media to tell their own stories. This, combined with a growing ubiquity of online media platforms, allows us to reach out to new publics by integrating archaeology into a greater social sphere.
