Do you like modern technology? Do you like Archaeology? It you answer yes to both then I have a list of 20 kick-a$$ blogs that you should follow. To make it easier to follow them here is a RSS feed of all the blogs so you can recieve updates (google bundle)- http://www.google.co.uk/reader/bundle/user%2F01932906651094703905%2Fbundle%2FDigital%20Archaeology%20and%20Tech.
For more awsome archaeology related blogs check out this list here.
NOTE- these blogs are also more than digital archaeology and technology, covering a diverse range of topics. They are just in this list because they also cover digital archaeology and tech really well.
Archaeogeomancy–http://www.archaeogeomancy.net/
“Geomancy:/ˈdʒiːə(ʊ)mansi/ 1. the art of placing or arranging buildings or other sites auspiciously. 2. divination from the configuration of a handful of earth or random dots
Archaeology: /ˌɑːkɪˈɒlədʒi/ the study of human history and prehistory through the excavation of sites and the analysis of artefacts and other physical remains.
Archaeogeomancy: /ˌɑːkɪˈɒdʒiːə(ʊ)mansi/ A completely made up term which relates to the use of spatial technologies to infer information about the past by looking at the configuration of archaeological remains. A sort of reverse diviniation if you will and a play on words, my day job being archaeological geomatics.
This site covers all manner of subjects relating to the use of 2D and 3D spatial technologies used for the investigation in an archaeological context of sites, monuments, structures and landscapes, particularly the spatial patterning of archaeological sites within the landscape.”
