Science Blogs
Posted by Jim H on January 27, 2008
I do a lot of surfing, in my sare time, looking for stuff to write about, commenting on some of my favorite blogs and just reading other blogs for fun. I have “blogrolled” some of the blogs I read regularly in the column on the left. I will be addin gto it in the future.
If you’re a rookie, then the ScienceBlogs⢠is a good place to start. This weekend I have been going through the list published on A Blog Around the Clock for the winners of the 2007
