Blogroll Amnesty Day
Today is apparently Blogroll Amnesty Day, in which small blogs link to smaller blogs, and so on. Alas, my blog is one of the smaller ones around, but since I tend to read across genres pretty broadly, perhaps I can help some people find some new blogs that they’d not seen before.
New to the blogroll, which has been un-changed for a very long time:
- Computational Biology News
- This blog is mostly links to interesting articles rather than a bunch of articles themselves, but Animesh Sharma nicely curates and finds stories on the net that I wouldn’t find otherwise.
- DrugMonkey
- DrugMonkey, which was recently assimilated into the SciBorg collective, is a great blog on health regulation in America.
- Ars Technica: Nobel Intent
- I’ve read Ars Technica for almost as long as it’s been around, starting from way back in my days in which I was really into computer science. Basically, I thought of Ars Technica as the thinking man’s Slashdot: less frenetic, more in-depth, and not pandering to the masses. Lately, Ars has gotten more pop-news-ish, but for the most part, it still seems to retain its journalistic integrity. Nobel Intent is Ars’ science journal, and they’ve got some great writers there. Apparently, a lot of science blogs have never heard of Ars Technica, so check it out if you haven’t read it before.
UPDATE:Forgot to add Evolving Thoughts, which covers biology, the philosophy thereof, history, politics, creationism, and really a whole swath of things that I find interesting.
(I doubt if CBN deserves it though).
