Notice that the number of other articles citing my papers range, in this sample, from 42 (top article) to 7 (bottom article). The ultimate impact is difficult to assess, since its hard to know how much influence these publications have on their readers and those who cite these articles. But the difference between these numbers and those hitting this blog site is dramatic, with tens of thousands of internet users hitting Asperger's Conversations to either read or listen to podcasts.
I point this out not to diss mainstream publication (that's important) but to argue that "scholars" should consider blogging as an additional tool for disseminating both research findings and discussing the implications of their work.
