Sorry to join in so late. I think this is a great idea. At RedHD we regularly publish our blog http://humanidadesdigitales.net/blog/ which is in Spanish. If there is anything GO:DH related I will make sure to let you know and will happily participate in adding any other content that I come across. I will be giving the closing keynote on this subject at DH13 and I am VERY interested in gathering as many different perspectives as possible. Best wishes, Isabel

I really think we should go this way. As I've probably said, we had pretty good success with it at digitalmedievalist when we pushed it.
It is a great thing for graduate students to do, for example, because it involves keeping up on the literature--and so is something that allows them to make dual use of something that is often their main task anyway.
And I think your point about language is also excellent: the one difficulty in a context like digitalmedievalist is that the expectation is that the correspondence is in English. Especially for junior grad students who are perhaps just getting used to working with academic writing in English, that can be quite intimidating. Being able to write in your home language is a nice way of easing into the process of writing about research--and there is nothing that stops one from translating into English or eventually even writing in it if that is what one likes.
I'm all in favour!

We might look at the dh+lib website (http://acrl.ala.org/dh/) as a potential model in this regard. They enlist at-large editors to help discover, nominate, and sort content by category: http://acrl.ala.org/dh/eal-instructions/. Imagine having at-large editors contributing from all over the world (we may need to start translating TO English). This seems like an opportune time to think about and discuss the GO::DH Web presence and how to make it more engaging.

I think that makes a lot of sense. Maybe the webmasters can set up another Working Group around this, or a page where we can work on it? I don't know whehter the CMS you are using can allow entries by multiple account holders, but in any case I'd definitely want to be involved & try to coordinate the efforts of others who are interested (and hopefully drum up some material for DSCN, too!)
I have messaged Nishant Shah through academia.eduhttp://academia.edu earlier today both to see about copies of his paper and inviting him to join GO::DH, so hopefully we'll hear more from him soon.
As long as I'm here, I apologize for spelling Domenico Fiormonte's name incorrectly in one of my earlier messages today.

And in terms of a journal, let me say that DSCN (http://digitalstudies.org/) is extremely interested in publishing this kind of thing. It is an ADHO journal that was founded by the Canadian Society for Digital Humanities/Société canadienne pour les humanités numériques. It has recently begun a transition to a major focus on Global DH and Multicultural/Multilingual DH and is very interested in refereeable submissions on these topics (I'm also the newly confirmed Editor-in-Chief). With ADHO and the University of Lethbridge, DSCN is one of the three sponsors of the Global DH essay competitionhttp://www.globaloutlookdh.org/global-outlookdigital-humanities-global-digital-humanities-essay-prize/, something I'm hoping we might be able to fund regularly going forward.

I hesitate to say a Global DH blog, but basically I'm saying a Global DH blog.
I really appreciate getting these as well (especially b/c a group of us are in the process of writing our DH2013 presentation which touch on these very issues) and I want to be able to cite/refer to the most recent writings/musings on the issue.

I've been tied up with a number of things lately and been unable to complete a response to the earlier thread about multilingualism and globalization, which I hope to do soon, as I feel that some of the most important issues have not yet been addressed thoroughly enough.
While reading the live tweets (hashtag #rp13) of the re:publica 13 conference now taking place in Berlin, I ran across this abstract for a paper by Nishant Shah, who directs the research portfolio at the Centre for Internet and Society in Bangalore (http://cis-india.org/author/nishant). It seems to me to speak to some of the issues that have been raised as well as some that have not, and that I hope we can discuss more fully in the future.

"Say 'Digital Humanities' One More Time: Technology, affect and learning in emerging information societies"
Nishant Shahhttps://re-publica.de/en/users/nishantshah
One of the ironies of the local-global divide is that certain practices within the local sphere often precede the global nomenclatures that are assigned to them. ‘Digital Humanities’ is a prime example of this phenomenon where a clutch of practices which emerged with the rise of digital technologies and their integration into the national policies on higher education and learning, are now retrospectively understood as ‘Digital Humanities’. So even as the term was gaining currency in the European and North American context, becoming one of the buzzwords through which new conditions of pedagogy and education were imagined within the Universities in the North-West, it had almost no takers in the emerging knowledge industries of South Asia in general, and India in particular.
Within this context, it has now become natural, for all talks about education to eventually veer towards infrastructure. There is enough reason for that, when we look at the pitiful lack of resources in the country vis-à-vis the size of the population, and many of the larger problems endemic in higher education today, are tied down to this massive infrastructure deficit.Simultaneously, there has always been a severe fragmentation and compartmentalisation of knowledge systems within the academia, which is not restricted to only the Humanities which is increasingly facing the pressure to make itself relevant and produce work-forces for a global finance driven market.
The questions of professionalising and mainstreaming humanities and social sciences education are almost universal right now, and indeed, one of the ambitions of Digital Humanities projects which are seeking to find validity for education that does not prepare a global information work-force. The realignment of the market with the education system, has been critiqued by theorists of neo-liberal globalisation, who have pointed out how it enables state disinvestment from education and the privatisation of learning resources. However, even in these existing critiques of Digital Humanities (whether they use that term or not), there seems to be a consensual agreement that infrastructure building is necessary and must happen.
This talk, critically examines the implications of adopting Digital Humanities as a principle in emerging information societies, and drawing from experiments with students in 9 undergraduate colleges in India, examines the ways in which it needs to reconsider its relationship with the more accepted ideas of infrastructure, usage, adoption and learning.
