Blogs, that is.
Sometime in the next 10 days I need to clean my blogroll and add new links.
I have a bunch in the pipeline, but suspect I must be missing many good new blogs.
Obviously any good astro/physics related stuff, but am also on lookout for quirky good stuff on other topics: stuff comparable to Calculated Risk, Iceland Weather Report or Yorkshire Ranter.
Not looking for any pure political stuff. Quite enough of those already, thanks.
Feel free to self-promote, but do not cross the line into spamming. Please.

A blog is software.
Importantly: a blog is free software.
Everyone can use it in any way they want. If there are 100 million blogs out there, there are 100 million blogging styles and 100 million ideas what blogging "is". And anyone who dares tell others how to do it incurs the wrath of the other…
Over at the theoretical physics beach party, Moshe is talking about teaching quantum mechanics, specifically an elective course for upper-level undergraduates. He's looking for some suggestions of special topics:

By way of Abel and DrugMonkey (among others), I see that today is Blogroll Amnesty Day. Jon Swift has the must-read post on the origins of the day and what it means now:

I'm a huge fan of notalwaysright.com, which posts daily stories from the harrowing world of retail.
I have really been enjoying both Shorpy and Letters of Note lately.
Well, a bunch of science bloggers just won Awards so you can check them out.
You're already reading the Women in Astronomy Blog, right?
I have a blog named Left of Centre it covers a mix of Penn State, academic, local and national politics with a heavy emphasis on Penn State politics. ...take a look...perhaps you'd like it enough to add it to your blogroll.
An astronomy blogger who just gets better and better is Nando Patat at Cosmic Diary. He's an ESO supernova guy but with very broad interests.
Do you read Arms Control Wonk?
I tried suggesting the Women in Astronomy Blog, but my comment didn't appear. What's wrong? Don't approve of women in astronomy? Or me personally?
Oh hey, my comment appeared *that* time. Sorry about sounding so grumpy about it.
Oops, overzealous ScienceBlogs master spam filter which singles out short comments with a URL in them as likely spam.
Thanks for prompting me to check.... should be there now.
At I Heart Science I list the past week's most interesting science news links.
Steinn, I first became aware of you from your posts on rec.arts.sf.written (as opposed to astronomy journals, etc). I get the same enjoyment I used to get from that newsgroup by reading James Nicoll's blog "More Words Deeper Hole" http://james-nicoll.livejournal.com/ and maybe you would too. The discussions in the comments section are often quite a bit of SF-oriented fun with a fair amount of astronomy, and politics. The often Canada-centric viewpoints can be refreshing for US-based readers as well.
I know I am too late to this blog thing. And I have only little to contribute. But perhaps you will find my blog interesting anyways.
