What No One Ever Tells You About Blogging and Podcasting, Real-Life Advice from 101 People Who Successfully Leverage the Power of the Blogosphere
NCAA Blogging Policy Truly Insane!
Wow, somebody pith these idiots!
("Pith" - remember freshman biology, something about inserting a needle into a frog's brain to render it insert before dissecting while heart still beats).
Talk about NO clue, no connection to reality! The B4B conference blog reports that the National Collegiate Athletic Association has placed some braindead ( a la "pithing:) restricting on blogging at college sports events for the media.
For example, you can only post ten times per fencing event. And there are restrictions for football, lacrosse, skiing, rifle, basketball and probably even "beer pong" events ( I was good at this one!). How about "Bongathons"? - do your rules cover those too?
My problem? (other than the insanity of it all). I speak at Colleges.
Hope I don't piss anyone off that might hire me otherwise :)
The next time you are speaking at a college you may want to announce that the talk is not covered by NCAA rules and that live blogging is permitted. I think I will.

That's a great one Alfred! I'm guessing (in retrospect) it may have been a knee-jerk reaction to something, and probably some type of (rational) electronic communication policy would make far more sense.
