biblioblogging: n. the practice of blogging about the Bible.
blogging: n. what I’m doing now.
world: n. the term I use to describe the sum of all the biblioblogs, because “community” is far too comfy a word for such a drama-filled and strife-ridden sea of interactions.
It looks like Jim West may be back with a blog Zwinglius Redivivus (the assumed name of the blogger there is “jim,” and although I have not found any confirmation, a bunch of people say he’s Jim West). The top 50 biblioblogs ranking system that everyone loves to obsess over is now locking us out. Joel Watts has reposted the top 50 list in case people want to see where they stand, but the anonymous folks behind the site are apparently no longer in the business, and so everyone will surely be looking for another method of ranking to compare themselves one to another.
But now I’m going to stop writing, because now I’m writing about people who write about people who write about the Bible, exemplifying the sort of self-distraction that plagues biblioblogging.
some updates on what’s going on in the biblioblogging world
