You may remember, from several months ago, that Attila started a contest for the best designed lab web page.
Soon, the project became too big for a lone blogger to tackle. Especially after an article about this appeared on the online pages of Nature. So, as Attila announced today, the contest goes Big Time.
The Scientist is now hosting the official contest. Of course, Attila is one of the judges. Several web-pages have already been nominated and now it is your job to think of the best-designed, prettiest, most-functional and most up-to-date laboratory homepages and nominate them for the prize.
Also, spread the word about this.

Attila had the idea for a contest for a best designed, prettiest and most functional laboratory website. I picked up on it and posted about it on my blog.
The idea took off and the contest was hosted by The Scientist. And again, I blogged about it. Anton saw my post, and told Karl about it. Karl…
2008 Science Blogging Conference
Not to be bragging, but the '07 Science Blogging Conference was a great success, and most attendees voiced their approval of Chapel Hill as a permanent venue for the event, so Anton and I are starting early in planning for the next one.
There are rumors of a mid-…
Several items showed up recently that may be of interest to science bloggers, their readers, and related science communicators of various stripes....
A) Today, Eureka, the science section of London Times, published a list of Top 30 Science Blogs.
Every list that has me in it is a good list ;-)…

To the best of my knowledge, I have never been the subject of gossip before, probably because I am the most boring person whom you could ever know. However, an e-magazine, Element broke the news today that Scientific Life and several other science blogs…
Done. I nominated the Bradley lab, for being the first Open Notebook.
Excellent! Thank you.
The two I suggested are also big proponents of Open Access - Brembs is on the Ed Board of PLoS (and an author there), while Refinetti is the founder and editor of an OA journal.
Crap, Jean-Claude is one of the judges, so his site's not eligible. Rosie Redfield's already nominated... maybe Cameron Neylon's cloning site...
It occurs to me that I don't know many lab web sites, and that there is no Postgenomic or Technorati for lab sites the way there is for blogs. It shouldn't be too hard to organize, since many lab sites already use blogs. Even just a list with an associated tag cloud would be good, so that you could browse for labs working on things you're interested in.
I was just thinking along these lines yesterday!
