Scienceblogs.com - new homepage and channels!

If you come here from the front page of Scienceblogs, you have probably noticed some changes. Instead of ten, there are now eight channels, and the latest 4 (instead of 3) posts in each category are highlighted. If you check the channels on the left side-bar you will see that the landing pages of each channel are now much more exciting! See, for instance, the Life Science page - it is not just a simple aggregator any more - there is a daily quote from a reader comment (the main quote on the front page is going to continue to be from one of us bloggers), a pretty picture of the day, and more stuff is still in the making. I believe that you need to resuscribe to new RSS feeds for the channels as the old ones are now defunct. Now, just because these changes are new, does not mean they are completely set in stone, so voice your opinions on the comment thread of this post on the editors' blog.
