We've set up a tag for use within del.ico.us that allows us to collectively aggregate examples of how higher ed institutions are using blogs within and between their institutions.
The tag is BloggingAcademicExamples . The list can be found at:
http://del.icio.us/tag/BloggingAcademicExamples
From this soup of examples, we'll want to organize the best examples into some sort of page that will also be useful to us as we reach out to various constituents and explain to them how blogs might help them solve their problems and/or reach their objectives.
