Many of the Scienceblog expatriates plus a few others have formed a new collective, Scientopia. It looks like a good bunch of people and a new and maybe better bottom-up approach to organizing a blog network — I'll be reading them and looking forward to their growth.

Although, I do have to say that I'm not a fan of their published code. It throws around the word "respect" way too much, which happens to be one of those words that annoys me, because it is too easily assumed when it should be earned. I don't respect everyone who blogs on science, and not everyone respects me (nor should they)…but it does put me on edge when a group announces a demand for mutual respect and also lays out a protocol for eviction, when I know that several of the people in the collective had little respect for some others on the Sb network. I have no respect for the pretense of respect.
But let's all hope for the best and much success to Scientopia.
