Could I just add, from my own experience as an early blogger that blogging your work provides an organizational framework, quite often and enables me to quickly find out what is and isn't working. It is such a useful learning tool, especially when you get feedback and most importantly, for me, it is a personal diary form that enables me to express my own ideas and opinions freely. I chose that to be my primary goal, rather than the circulation of my work, which if it comes later I will consider an unexpected bonus. Everything you had to say was useful.

But would like to know if one can copy articles from other blogs and use on their blogs (of course with the owners permission and credit duly given) Hi,

I've been doing blogs-as-art since 2005. I found that even three years ago, the kind of "round up" you provide, of various approaches to blogs as art (or the incorporation of blogs into art, or the use of blogs by artists) was not possible. The whole thing really has exploded recently, and I think blogs have proven to be great tools for artists. Personally, I fit into your first category, where the blog is not used as a way of documenting or illustrating the "art", the blog IS the artwork. Like you suggest, I also employ the use of "behavioral rules" in order to create boundaries and tension within the blog projects. I have written an essay about some of this stuff, if you'd like to read it. It's available here: http://www.lucazoid.com/bilateral/bilateral-blogging-essay-about-bilateral-kellerberrin-now-available/ cheerio Lucas Hi there, I enjoyed reading this.

It's helped me to see the different directions I could take my blog. Also, it's helped me to find other bloggers who are interested in documenting the process. Thanks for posting this.

I'm glad you found it useful, Gesa - I always think that knowing what we don't want from something is half the battle and I usually work that out far quicker than deciding what I do want. @Gesa.
