A Farewell to Scienceblogs: the Changing Science Blogging Ecosystem
July 19, 2010

I did in fact cover the issue of bird-strikes back in January 2008, but since then I've learnt a few new things that I'd like to share. For the record, I'm not covering this issue - or featuring the various photos you see here - because I regard it as…
The Pogeyan, a new mystery cat
I've pretty much given up on TV. I occasionally watch a few things (The IT Crowd, Doctor Who, QI, Never Mind the Buzzcocks), but mostly it's all shit and I'd be very happy to not have a TV at all. Once in a blue moon, however, there is something really good. On Friday evening (Jan 16th), BBC 2 screened 'The Mountains of the Monsoon' as part of its The Natural World series.
