Blogroll Amnesty Day

Posted by Eric at 4:17 pm | Category: Links, Maintenance

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.

    Eric thanks for adding CBN to the roll-list :) (I doubt if CBN deserves it though).
