Are you interested in maintaining The Complete List of Biblioblogs? Or The Complete List of Facebook Biblical Studies page? Or the Biblical Studies Carnival List?
Then The Biblioblog Top 50 wants you!
We are looking for volunteers to keep each of these lists up to date. Preferably, the task would suit a biblioblogger, but we welcome anybody who is interested.
If you would like to help, please email biblioblogtop50 [at] yahoo.com!
The Biblioblog Top 50 is pleased to announce that the site now includes The Complete List of Facebook Biblical Studies Pages.
Mark Hoffmann recently noted on Mark Goodacre’s NT Blog that the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine had archived the “Featured Blogger Interviews” from the now defunct biblioblogs.com (Brandon Wason, John Hobbins and Jim West).
As these will undoubtedly be of interest to many biblical studies bloggers and their readers, and for ease of access, these are now archived here at the Biblioblog Top 50.

We have recently updated the List of Biblical Studies Carnivals.
The Biblical Studies Carnival is a monthly carnival showcasing the best of blog posts in the area of academic biblical studies. It commenced in March 2005, with Joel Ng’s carnival (archived on The Biblioblog Top 50), was revived by Tyler Williams for the month of January 2006, and – with the odd hiatus – has continued ever since. The latest Carnival, covering the month of May 2013, was the 88th Biblical Studies Carnival.
Please do have a browse of this excellent resource.
The Complete List of Biblioblogs, which lists every blog whose primary interest is academic biblical studies, has been updated on The Biblioblog Top 50. We regret that the list had not been sufficiently updated over the last two years and we are now seeking to restore it as a useful tool for biblical studies bloggers and their users.
If you are aware of any blogs which should be added to the list, or any other changes which should be made, please email biblioblogtop50 [at] yahoo.com.
For users’ convenience, the top 20 and top 50 biblioblogs are indicated beside each relevant biblical studies blog. Rankings will be revised quarterly, and will take into account the biblical studies content and the impact and popularity of the blog (i.e. applying standard X Factor rules, mutatis mutandis). The first quarterly update will take place for the quarter ending 30 June 2013.
We recently analyzed the locations at which bibliobloggers taught and studied. The study revealed that more than a quarter of bibliobloggers were from the American South. But when we examine New Testament bibliobloggers, the results are even more startling. The American South totally dominates New Testament Biblioblogging. A staggering 2 out of 5 worldwide New Testament bibliobloggers are based down South. On a U.S. basis, 2 out of 3 American New Testament bibliobloggers are from the South.
We encourage comments as to how this may impact on the nature of New Testament biblioblogging overall.

April 22, 2009 at 8:39 pmThis is incredibly interesting. I guess there’s a lot going on here in the South! :-)
April 22, 2009 at 10:13 pmYour statistics are somewhat misleading since you only consider where people are currently living and not where they originally came from. I am not originally from the south, but from New York, for example.
April 22, 2009 at 10:48 pm“Misleading”? We explicitly described the statistics as analyzing “the locations at which bibliobloggers taught and studied.” That explained precisely what we meant by bibliobloggers being “from” the American South.
One might “misunderstand” that, but that’s different from being “misled,” isn’t it?
April 23, 2009 at 1:31 amSo what happened to the South Africa piece of the pie?
April 23, 2009 at 6:24 amKind sirs, if you would direct me to which section you included the great State of West Virginia, in the heart of Appalachia (am I the only Appalachian biblioblogger?). Yes, dear friends, we do have computers.
Otherwise, I find it interesting that the American South is so represented, considering the less than ‘E’nvangelical voices which I read.
April 23, 2009 at 8:33 pmWest Virginia is South. You disagree? Pronounce “cooking oil” for me (a phonetic response might be required).
April 25, 2009 at 3:14 pmIn Texas its, /cu-kin oy-yul/
In South Africa, /cooh-king ul/
April 25, 2009 at 4:24 pmI have spent the better part of two days trying to pronounce it – I reckon it’s /cu-kin oll/
April 25, 2009 at 4:32 pmPolycarp – that’s South.
Daniel and Tonya – For Texas, you’re using a lot of unnecessary syllables in oil, compared to up West Virginia way.
April 26, 2009 at 3:53 pmWe also unnecessarily say edumacation.
June 12, 2009 at 7:33 amMaybe we should call it bubbablogging.
