Abstract

There is no question that it is easy to get lost when climbing outside the ivory tower of academia and becoming a socially engaged scholar. In my case, such engagement has substantially delayed many other projects that are dear to my heart. Nevertheless, in the course of my fourteen year sojourn on the web, all in all the time spent outside has been worth it. In this paper, I will discuss three web-based projects that I have created: my “Islam and Islamic Studies Resources” website, an international discussion group on Sufism called “Sufis Without Borders,” and a daily world news service, “Sufi News and Sufism World Report.” I will also make some recommendations based on insights gained over the course of these projects.
