BlogHighEd: new higher ed blog aggregator

A couple of my favorite higher ed bloggers — Brad Ward and Matt Herzberger — have been working feverishly these past few weeks on a new aggregator of higher ed blogs. Today, they unveiled the beta version of their site, BlogHighEd.org.

bloghighed.gifBlogHighEd pulls feeds from higher ed blogs and presents them in a nice, clean webpage format. Currently the site is drawing from 19 feeds, with more certain to be added in the coming days. Many of my favorites are included, but some are not — yet. If you’re a higher ed blogger and are interested in joining the BlogHighEd site, go ahead and submit an application.

PR Changes examines social media and PR

Three journalism and communications faculty members at Auburn University (academic home of social media guy Robert French) have launched PR Changes, a blog designed to explore how social media is affecting the PR business. In their inaugural post, the profs pose two questions for PR practitioners:

Do social media relationships really have an impact on an organization’s image and reputation?

Do these relationship impact the bottom line?

Why not drop by PR Changes and share your thoughts? I’m sure they’d appreciate hearing from you.

Thanks to Robert for the Tweet.
