BLOGGITY
I'm a big believer in the power of the internet to enhance communication both within science itself and between scientists and the public. As such, I not only blog myself, but am an avid reader of a number of blogs in a variety of disciplines.

Two of my first go-tos are researchblogging.org for the latest in blogging peer reviewed research and it's Editor's Selections section. Below I list the other science blogs that I read on a (semi)-regular basis. Enjoy!
