blogographos is a public blog to which anyone interested in Greek and Roman antiquity may post. This means interested laymen as well as professional classicists and students. This blog is not intended as a challenge to the resources for classicists currently available--chief among them the Classical Greek and Latin Discussion Group, hosted at the University of Kentucky, and David Meadows's rogueclassicism--but rather as a complement.
How do I post to blogographos? Register at blogographos using the form in the sidebar. Once your registration is complete, open the blogthis window to begin a post.
But what to post? Here are some possibilities: interesting links, reviews of classics-related media, book announcements, questions, amusing anecdotes of a classical nature, suggestions about improving the blog, and so on. Try to keep things intelligent and properly spelt.
Comportment. Spam and other inappropriate material--as determined solely by the Autokrator--will be deleted from blogographos forthwith.

Announcing TwitterLit!
The secret project I've been working on here in the lair is now ready for public scrutiny! I've created a new site, TwitterLit.com.
What is TwitterLit? Twice a day, at about 12:00 AM and 12:00PM GMT, I'll post the first line of a book to TwitterLit -- without the author's name or book title, but with a link (to Amazon.com) so you can see what book the line is from. Why? Because it's fun! It's just a little literary teaser twice a day. The first lines will, meanwhile, be available for subscription via RSSand -- and this is the exciting part and the reason for the site's name -- to Twitter. There is also a highly customizable TwitterLit widget available for posting on your own site, should you want to. You can see my version of the widget in the sidebar at TwitterLit. There are already three first lines posted at TwitterLit -- I started out with a particularly appropriate quote, I thought. Please do click over to the site to see what it's about.
