If you can read German language and you are interested in science, you will be happy to know that our sister-site, Scienceblogs.de is now live! It looks and feels similar to us, and they have lured in several of the best German-language bloggers. The collaboration between the two sites will continue (hey, wanna translate some of their best posts?) and Page 3.14 has all the details. Which language is next? We are taking over the world, once language at a time!

Any suggestions on learning German quickly?
Posted by: joltvolta | December 11, 2007 1:44 AM
Oh great! Now I will have to spend twice the time on the internets reading the posts in English and the posts in German. Thanks a lot for keeping me from getting fresh air!!
>> Which language is next?
What about Spanish?

Joltvolte: Deutsche Welle is not only one of the best news services for European (and world) news, but they have a whole bunch of free German-language learning resources online. Here's a link to their language-instruction main page.
Viel Glück!

Say, Coturnix, now that Sb is going international, do you think you could convince the Seed webmaster to change the default charset for blog pages from iso-8859-1 to utf-8?
I can't tell you how many times I've been hosed trying to use "special characters" (e.g., normal, non-English characters). It makes ScienceBlogs look bad. (Oddly enough, the comment preview page is set to utf-8, but the main pages and permalink pages specify iso-8859-1.)

I think some of the individual blogs have been (partially?) fixed because their writers knew how to fix them.
Didn't Mark Chu-Caroll fix his?
Really, the encoding issue is most annoying.
