Really interesting read and insight into a tutors perspective on this, there seems to be a lot of contradictions in terms of getting online, on one hand it seems very easy for staff and students using the commercial platforms 'ready made' environments and on the other hand there seems to be a real need to learn more professional and independent approaches to web building.

Its a bit like the difference in buying a ready made canvas stretcher (easy, low skill and quick but can be expensive, less variety or bespoke and have unknown longevity) or knowing how to build your own canvas (more time, skills but cheaper long term, bespoke and constructed well to last with best choice materials).

There are lots of areas for debate I think - Open and Closed - Copyright - and presence online as a practitioner.

I'm not sure about "If you think of it in three stages; sketchbook - total honesty, blog - honesty, but somewhat edited, website - totally censored as it’s very public." I think the web has changed and this is/will become an outdated perspective as we begin to practice online more, I think we may find this has/will be reversed over time.
