ScienceBlogs loses three, gains two

There has been a lot of moving and shaking going on at ScienceBlogs lately. Not only have we welcomed two new library science bloggers (Christina's LIS Rant and Confessions of a Science Librarian, welcome), but three of my favorite bloggers have left the Sb community.

I've got to admit, as more of the blogs here blog less about science and more against issues they don't like (in particular religion) with an increased vitriol ... I look elsewhere.
