Scholarly Blogs

Scholarly blogging facilitates the exchange of ideas amongst researchers and with the public. Any researcher can use blogs to report on their own work – for example, on interim findings – and receive immediate feedback.

DHd Blog

The DHd Blog — Digital Humanities in the German-speaking world — aims to provide as comprehensive a picture as possible of the research landscape in the Digital Humanities in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. From various disciplinary contexts and perspectives, current topics are identified, projects and research questions are portrayed, tools and services are presented, and discussions are called for on a wide range of issues.

Would you like to support us with blogging and are you a Digital Humanities expert? Very gladly — please contact the DHd Blog editorial team. We welcome new authors and contributions and will be in touch with you promptly.

de.hypotheses.org

The portal de.hypotheses.org (OpenEdition, member of DARIAH-FR) is a free blog portal for the German-speaking humanities and social sciences. The portal provides greater visibility as well as archiving of content. Hypotheses.org is also a great resource for anyone wishing to stay informed about current developments, events, and research activities in the humanities and social sciences.

An example of this is the Text+ Blog. This blog provides information, as well as project and research findings, for the community working with language- and text-based research data.

Other Blog Systems

In addition to de.hypothesis.org, there are many other options for researchers to run their own blog.

For example, it is possible to install and run a blog yourself using Google’s Blogger, WordPress, or Joomla, but also to adapt and use the common content management systems offered by various universities to meet your own needs.
