It's like the blogoverse suddenly got more concentrated or something.
Oh wait, I remember! It's move-in day at the newly completed ScienceBlogs Towers! Look at all those moving vans! Look at all those bloggers! A quick run-down of my new neighbors (and their previous addresses) after the jump. And mad props to Sb Towers architect and interior designer Tim Murtaugh!!

holy crap! that's a lot of new neighbors.
Yes, the population has gotten quite large. In fact, it seems ... well, uncomfortable. I hope I can find my way back to the old friends' places.
Thanks for the heads up! Wow! Lot of new neighbors indeed!
Moving is always a hassle!
Though the neighbors are numerous, they are excellent -- and the old Sb homepage would have made this kind of population density really crazy. Once you've got the hang of the new one (to which, I have it on good authority, a pull-down menu of the blogs will be added -- there's also an alphabetic list of the blogs about halfway down the left side-bar), everything thing will be good.
Wow, I'm surprised at that some of my favorite med bloggers (Dr. Charles and Cheerful Onc) are moving over, as well as several blogs I've seen on Tangled Bank. Quite an influx!
Hmm, it looks like Chemblog isn't part of the network and hasn't been updated since April. Also, it seems that while there are chemists who blog, there are still no blogs on the network devoted to blogging about chemistry. Any ideas on why other fields are represented better on the network?
Oh, don't worry: I am part of the network, and I have basically refrained from updating due to the fact that, well, the old server wasn't the best, either for popularity or stability. Plus, I have been incredibly busy in the meantime. Don't worry, the Chemblog will soon be back.
