From several sources comes this item describing the Weblogs@UPEI, a project to provide weblogs to all students at UPEI. The student newspaper, the Cadre, is involved: "The Cadre has partnered with the BEAT team to develop a much needed web presence for the long-standing student newspaper. The Cadre Online is powered by Weblogs@upei and fully integrated with every registered account." The BEAT team, meanwhile, is "a group of students and coordinators, who, inspired by the advances of the Internet, are exploring its potential for enhancing communication, collaboration, learning and creativity." Writes Mark Hemphill from UPEI: "We’ve tried to follow the model given by the Internet itself – provide a service that enables the most micro-atomic elements and let them organize themselves." That's exactly how to do it. James Farmer points to an undocumented feed about the project, and Howard Jarche comments that "This project was done by Will Pate and his team at http://www.goodbasic.com. We’re becoming quite enamoured with Drupal in Atlantic Canada :)"
