The functioning of authorship in scientific dissemination blogs

The present paper reflects on the discursive functioning of scientific dissemination blogs, while challenging the mode of authorship building in the context of New Technologies of Information and Communication. Thus, here are analyzed those scientific dissemination blogs that are part in the Anel de Blogs Científicos da USP, and selected the posts about the 61st Annual Meeting of the SBPC (Brazilian Society for Scientific Development). The adopted analytical procedures were those of the French line of Discourse Analysis, which allowed the observation of a functioning that incorporates an Internet procedure, copy and paste, which represents an appropriation of texts by the blogger; the fact that the text belongs to another person is erased. Consequently, one does not deal with an author as the origin of the saying anymore.
