The blog as the new resumé

Joshua Porter argues, in concordance with Adam Darowsky, that the blog is the new resumé. It's certainly an interesting perspective on blogging, though blogs can be very, a little or not at all professionally focused. In my case, weaverluke blog functions as my "calling card" for my identity work, but there are other professional hats, those of piano teacher and web entrepreneur, that I don't tend to wear here too often. Which is much the same approach as a good resume takes, I guess—that of communicating a particular persona, rather than one's identity as a whole.
