The folks at 3quarksdaily have just announced that they are going to award three prizes (called, appropriately enough, quarks) to some of the best examples of science blogging on the web. All you have to do is pick out your favorite blog post written sometime between May 24, 2008 and now and submit it in the comments. The submission process will be open until midnight on June 1, 2009, shortly followed by the opening of public voting. Then six finalists will be selected from which the winners will be chosen by Steven Pinker.
If you have any favorite Laelaps posts please feel free to submit them. It looks like I have got some tough competition, but that just means I will probably be as impressed with whichever posts win as everyone else!
