I was wondering whether my new gadget counted? It is part bag/part notebook and very 'go ahead'. It can be used in many ways: fashion item; for making notes; as bag. It has a pen to match.

Is this a METABLOG? if so, is it a new literacy?
Guy and I met yesterday to discuss our new research project which is to be autoethnographic in its approach. It will be about blogging and about us and about what it is to blog and why. It will be so self-referential we may disappear. Which maybe a good thing.
We took photos of each other at the meeting
.... I was employing new literacies of course, while Guy left the meeting having written the agreed title for the site on his hand.
It's gonna be an uphill journey.
Some things never change.

Hi
Thanks for your comments .... it is always fantastic to get responses!!
I think Guy and I ae fumbling around re the autoethnography concept. We are putting ourselves at the centre of the ethnograhy but it is not autobiography! I guess we are doing an ethnography with us as central; so we are both observer and topic. We think this is good as a research tool since a blog also is about oneself and also about our obsevations on the world. WE ill have to see how the thing evolves and work out what we mean by autoethnography as we go I think. I gurss we will work this out through blogtrax.
And definitely people who comment will have to be in as they are a very imprtant part of our sense of audience I think...
