Welcome, Josh Rosenau

ScienceBlogs continues to be the New York Yankees of the blogging world, scooping up every great science blogger in the world (though we're still waiting for one of those $20 million contracts to come around). The latest acquisition is Thoughts from Kansas, Josh Rosenau's excellent blog that focuses on evolution and, in particular, on Kansas. Josh will make an excellent addition to the lineup. So welcome, Josh.

A couple tips to help you get along here: don't leave a mess around your locker or Katherine will yell at you. And don't bother Tim with technical problems until he's had his coffee in the morning.

OK, so a bunch of us sciencebloggers went to New York City this weekend. This is something that we were trying to do for almost a year now. Sure, many of us Sciblings have met one-on-one on occasion, but this was an opportunity to get many of us together all in the same place at the same time, to…

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends, we're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside. I thought about coming up with some really clever theme for this week's Carnival. I thought about doing it like a real carnival barker, telling you what mysterious and amazing things await…

I'm no Jason Giambi.... I was asked to join scienceblogs a while back, and actually intended to say yes, but got busy and... well, I dunno. I kinda like being independent :) I'm one of those control freaks who gets nervous when things aren't on a server I run. I do the same with all software support for my class-- it's all Perl stuff I wrote myself, rather than blackboard or any other thing whose license is liable to be revoked mid-class.

Plus, I'm an A's fan, and thus have Yankeephobia, and am still mad at Jason Giambi for deserging the A's whatever year that was.

On a more serious note -- scienceblogs is maybe getting too big? I used to keep up with most of the blogs here, but there are getting to be more of them than I have time to keep up with.
