ScienceBlogs hibernates...

Well for a day anyway...

ScienceBlogs is currently powered (and I say that in the most charitable possible sense) by Movable Type 3. This Saturday, we're upgrading to Movable Type 4, which will mean the following:

  • No new posts from any of us from Friday 6pm GMT for about a day
  • No new comments from you either (sad face)
  • Some inevitable teething problems when the upgrade kicks in
  • A bunch of vampiric, vitamin D-deficient bloggers who will stumble out into the bright, shiny world and be very confused, or just sit in a corner, typing into thin air and scratching themselves.

Have good weekends everyone and I'll see you on Sunday.

It looks like everyone has a new angle on the recent Nature science blog rankings.
I must say, that when I was asked to be a Scibling, one of the "cons" was switching from an open source platform that I was very familiar with (WordPress) to a non-Open Source platform (Movable Type).
Since I posted that open letter to Seed, it's only fair to post the reply I received the other day.
Something is wrong with my site. Comments appear to be totally screwed up. This situation started on Friday, and I informed Scienceblogs Central of this. Since then I've been off the internet, wandering through the wilderness in the Great American Southwest.
