Back from Birmingham

2007 July 30

Phew, what a month! I’m certainly not complaining - July was terrifically productive and interesting, with two conferences on very different subjects (Open Access Publishing and Corpus Linguistics). But the consequence was a pretty uneven blogging schedule, with much activity two weeks ago followed by a long silence.

Anyway, I’m picking up the reins again this week. But let me start by linking to the presentation I held at Birmingham.

I really enjoyed the colloquium and learned a lot from the other participants, especially because of the diverse disciplinary set-up (Linguistics, Information Retrieval, Computer Sciences, …). As Serge Sharoff pointed out, we were all very much talking about the same thing, even though our approaches may be different. Thanks once more to the organizers, Serge and Marina Santini, for their effort!
