Goodbye to old friends, and welcome new sciblings

First, as most ScienceBlogs readers know, Carl Zimmer of "The Loom" has moved over to Discover's blogs. He's a terrific science writer and you must change your feed, if you haven't yet. Now, the Deep Sea News folks have some breaking news.

The other wonderful edition is "Built on Facts", a physics blog that even I can usually understand.

I think I'm going to have to stage a cage-match between the people who loved the old colour theme and those who hated it. . . .

But thanks for the kind words and the link!
