What Happened to the Science Blogs?

Something new is afoot in the science blogosphere. Seed Magazine has been busy inviting science bloggers to its ScienceBlogs website to create one big, aggregated science blog. Some of the bigger names in the science blog category have abandoned, or presumably will soon abandon, their old blog servers to join ScienceBlogs, including Pharyngula, Cognitive Daily, and Living the Scientific Life. The ScienceBlogs homepage operates like an RSS feed to give you a place to quickly scan the latest posts from all of their science blogs. According to Tim Lambert of Deltoid, "The main reason for the move is the chance to be associated with the fine group of blogs here. The designers at ScienceBlogs are dreaming up ways to provide links to interesting posts at other blogs on this site in the sidebar, so my readers can get some more value out of my blog.

ScienceBlogs

Hoy he descubierto Scienceblogs. Pharyngula, por problemas con su hosting, decide mudarse a ese vecindario, asi que me he dado una vuelta. Esteticamente no es que sea una maravilla, pero el contenido... sin palabras. Los mas activos, leidos y referenciados blogs sobre biologia evolutiva en lengua inglesa, todos reunidos. Gosh, menudo vecindario!

ScienceBlogs.com: A Brand-New Science Blogging Community

Today I happened to check my visitor stats and noticed a whole bunch of visitors from The Intersection. I stepped on over there and found out that it is a blog written by Chris Mooney, author of The Republican War on Science. He'd happened to link to my reviews on Bethell's tripe. I dug a little further into ScienceBlogs.com and found a whole bunch of really fantastic science blogs there. And, even more to my surprise, it is run by my new favorite media company, Seed Media Group!

The bloggers gathered together at ScienceBlogs are some of the brighter lights in the science blogging community, so it's kind of a one-stop-shop for the latest discussion. It is, however, lacking in coverage of Astronomy, Space Sciences, and the Geosciences. I hope that particular vacancy(ies) will be filled soon.

We're at it again: ScienceBlogs are in the hizzouse.

Well, Monkey Do has again been busy, and again the partner–in–web is Seed, and again it’s a Movable Type installation — but this time we're actually using it for blogs!
Seed has talked 14 prominent science bloggers into forming a topical blog network — the topic being Science, of course (with a capital S). Some of the names include PZ Myers (of Pharyngula fame), Chris Mooney, Ed Brayton and Tim Lambert. There's already something for everybody, except ID proponents. Maybe later. (Just kidding.) (Maybe.)

Seed Magazine Scoops Up Cool Bloggers

Both Pharyngula and Adventures in Ethics and Science have moved moved to ScienceBlogs, hosted by Seed Magazine. Not only that, but PZ Myers at least is now being paid to blog. Congratulations to both!

Dislike vs. Intolerance

The blog listed just below, Ed Brayton's Dispatches from the Culture War, has moved to a new location on the internet, ScienceBlogs, and thanks to that move I've discovered several other interesting blogs (most of which are admittedly above my head).
One post in particular caught my eye, and I can't agree with the sentiment enough. Pharyngula, a blog about.... well, I'm not sure yet, but which describes itself as "Evolution, development, and random biological ejaculations from a godless liberal," quoted from Dan Savage in assuring his audience that he'll maintain his godless stance in his new online home.

SCIENCE BLOGGING....

Chris Mooney's science blog is now being sponsored by Seed magazine, where Chris works, and has a new URL:
http://scienceblogs.com/intersection
The Seed borg is apparently swallowing up quite a few other science-oriented blogs as well, including PZ Myers' Pharyngula, Chad Orzel's Uncertain Principles, Tim Lambert's Deltoid, and about a dozen others (so far). The main site is here. It's worth checking out.

Welcome, Science Blogs!

A new web-site called ScienceBlogs has debuted. They include many high-quality science related blogs that have been in my blogroll for quite some time, such as Pharyngula, Deltoid, Dispatches From The Culture Wars, and The Intersection. But there are a bunch of other high-quality science related blogs at this site that I am going to check out (and that you should check out).

Random findings

A new site by Seed Magazine, brought together several science blogs at the same place and can be a one-stop shop of great science blogging. Some of my favorite blogs have made it their new home or their authors have started a new, related blog over there. So, go check out ScienceBlogs, and some of my favorites - Aetiology, Pharyngula, and Living the Scientific Life.
