Klastrup's Cataclysms

This is the research diary of researcher Lisbeth Klastrup, since february 2001 sharing her thoughts on life, universe, persistent online worlds, games, interactive stories and internet oddities with you on the www.

I am currently on leave from the IT University of Copenhagen, and from aug. 2006 - aug. 2007 working as Associate Research Professor at the Center for Design Research Copenhagen, an independant center situated at the School of Architecture. During this year, I will be working on a book about the development of aesthetics, design and interaction on the WWW, together with colleague Ida Engholm.

My blog often reflects how busy I am in general, so posting may be pretty irregular, as well as my potential response to comments. But I read them!

Everywhere I go they blog

I was just looking for a list of grocery stores in my neighbourhood, but ended up here:

There is a group of Atlanta Bloggers who meet up to drink beer. They even have their own website as of last month.
Why does it remind me of the Copenhagen bloggers ;)?

And there is also the Atlanta Metrobloggers (missed that one, I just discovered the jetrosexuals, and thought I was up to date on the urban lingo, but no. Metrobloggers. Obvious.)

Oh, and while we on the subject of fellow bloggers, I discovered that Rasmus of Acutecut and Kammeret (DK) is blogging from Seattle, I should have remembered because he has been writing in his blog about going there. Rasmus is also an upcoming photographer so his photos are way cooler than mine. In the four something months he's been over there (as it reads) he's managed to meet the love of his life and get married. See there's real life romance for you, blog style. Congratulations to Rasmus :).

ok, i'm not sure I get it. The Copenhagen-bloggers also meet up for beer??

Well, at least, there has been two Blog n' Beer events, including mostly Copenhagen Bloggers.

I guess what I was trying to say is that it's interesting to observe that when you have arelatively geographically close blog cluster, it might often (?) end up with people deciding to meet up in real life as well.

Gotta try that some day :)

Must be interesting to have people, who already know each other through their online activities, meet up and develope social relations of sorts.

Anyway, I've never thought of geographical location of a way to categorize blogging activity.
