I'm having a ball considering how to cite references from new web media... but the posts are so long (sorry) its a pain to scroll through my APA style citing label, so this post will help me get straight to the one I want.
Citation issues that arise if you assign students online writing tasks:
- expectations for academic referencing styles when writing online;
- APA's hanging indents with HTML
Please note that better answers than mine below may be available at APA's referencing blog - more on that lower.
- Blog post
- Blog post comment
- How APA's 2007 "Weblog post" example was a fail
- Games
- Google+ posts or comments
- Photos and images from Flickr or similar online sources
- Slideshare presentation (Powerpoint online?)
- Songs
- Twitter tweet
- Twitter tweet span
- YouTube video
- Vimeo video, includes citing narrator; citing interviewee
If so, Please tell me about it so I can have fun with it too.

Indeed, APA's blogging about referencing is immensely helpful. The referencing gurus at APA's blog are guiding wonderfully not just through their posts, but in their ongoing responses and explanations through comments. The first bits I'd recommend woud be:
- Chuck's guide to the Generic Reference and the subsequent:
- Who. (When). What. Where.
- Timothy's Frankenreference
- and [Supplementary];
- Citing Facebook

ABOUT COMMENTING HERE:
1. You can use some HTML tags, such as <b>, <i>, <a>
2. Apparently blogspot requires that we allow third party cookies for the darn feature to work. Sorry, nothing I can do about it - Google will lead you to instructions.
3. I don't generally post on contentious issues so I don't expect problems.
However, I will delete comments I consider:
disrespectful, destructive, irrelevant or SPAM, (even sucking up: praising my post without reason while linking to a business site).
