Abstract

Research environments have been changing with the availability of new technologies for decades. Researchers are benefited from digital libraries, online databases, and Web search engines recently. It is expected that the Web-based research systems play an important role in supporting research activities. Blogs, a new form of mainstream personal communication and a new voice for traditional media, recently gained much attention from the public, industrial and academic. This article studies issues on Web-based research support systems with blogs.
