ScienceBlogs Showcase

The forthcoming issue of Seed will include a big spread on ScienceBlogs, and the online version is already up. They got pictures of all the bloggers (with stand-ins for the pseudonymous), and turned a caricature artist loose on us, leading to the motley mob scene at the top of that page.

The cartoon will be in the magazine, along with excerpts from some particularly interesting blog posts, which are listed at the lower right of that page. I haven't seen the print magazine yet, so I don't know exactly what form it will take, but I'm happy to see that one of my posts made the list. Given that they picked a dozen posts out of more than 20,000 to date, that's pretty cool.

This would, of course, be the place to note that Seed makes a lovely Christmas gift...
