mapping from an online identity to a legal identity--these seem like Bad
Ideas.  But is there a strong case for protecting an open system from
passive surveillance?

A colleague is advising a senior capstone thesis in political 
blogging and its impact, and had the following questions after 
finding few academic publications. I'd appreciate any suggestions for 
her, off-list or on.

>Are there major academic articles about political blogs? In what journals?
>Are there major theories that we should consider?
>What criteria do you apply to blogs when analyzing them?

	Thanks,
	Sarah
