The polls for 2005 Koufax Awards are now open! There are 15 award categories, and a good representation of science bloggers (including ScienceBlogsers) among the nominees.
Including (aw, shucks!) "Adventures in Ethics and Science" in the Best New Blog category. Of course, I would be honored if you were to vote for me! (Voting this round is in the comments or via email. Please, only vote once in each category -- this isn't a Front Page poll!)
Here are some of my favorites in the categories in which I'm not competing:
- Afarensis
- Circadiana
- Cognitive Daily
- Cosmic Variance
- Living the Scientific Life
- Mike the Mad Biologist
- Pharyngula
- Thoughts From Kansas
- Aetiology on Pandemic influenza
- Michael Berube for his posts about his son, Jamie
- DarkSyde at DKos for Science Friday
- Living the Scientific Life for Birds in the News
- PZ Myers for his series on sex. Invertebrate sex that is. Lobster sex Octopus sex Spider Kama Sutra Tentacle sex Tentacle sex, part deux, and Worm porn
Most Deserving of Wider Recognition:
I'm not going through the other categories -- check them out yourself.
And whether you vote for me or not (please!please!please!), thanks for reading me!

If you want to vote, all you have to do is follow the…
FINALLY! The polls are open to vote for the 2005 Koufax Awards. The purpose of this round of voting is to identify the top 6-10 semifinalists for each category. Voting is done either through email or by posting your choice in each category's comments. As you might recall, Living the Scientific Life…
That horrible little Christian parody site, Christwire, is attacking me! It's terrible! They have publicly made this wicked accusation: "Professor Meyers and the Pharyngula peddle off tentacle anime pornography." I am aghast. I would sue their slandering, sanctimonious little butts off, except, of…
It's not easy keeping track of all the ScienceBlogs. Take four dozen witty and prolific science writers, some of whom post more than once a day, spread them out across a wide range of disciplines and sub-specialties, and what you'll have yourself is a big, tangly embarrassment of riches.
What's a…
Janet - that's very sweet of you to put Phronesisaical among your favorites. Thanks for the vote of confidence!
Thanks for the mention!
Thanks for the mention! It is so hard to choose only one in each category - I wish I could vote for two dozen in each (as I nominated that many to begin with).
