A pioneer initiative

Via Jose Luis Orihuela from eCuaderno I have found that MIT has opened an experimental free hosted weblog to serve MIT students, faculty, staff, researchers, and alumni "with the purpose of facilitating the communication around research and innovation at MIT".
I think is a brilliant idea and a pioneer effort by a major University. As their website states it "Weblogs tools make it extremely easy to publish new content on a regular basis" .
I hope the Unversity of Bergen, very soon, will move in the same direction.
