Honest - We Do Write About Science Blogs

Gena Haskett — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 07:08:36 -0500

I write about Science at least twice a month and I know Leslie has a regular spotlight on Science bloggers. You can use the keyword Science to pull up those posts.

It is a huge area and I strongly encourage anyone who knows of a woman science blog that needs a shout out to either post it or send the link to me or Leslie.

I know folks are interested - lots of people read the science posts. This is a problem with no easy solution. Keyword searching at this point is the best way to find the science blogs

If we create a science category, then the Historian bloggers are coming for their due topic space. Then you have the Linquistic bloggers. Next thing you know all of Academic wants their separate topic area. There isn't enough room on the sidebar as it is.

So help us feed the need and us get up to speed.

Not enough space

Unfortunately, we don't have the space to create a topic or sub-topic that people might use to label their blogs. If you have a science blog, I'd recommend listing it in Research, Academia & Education and using the description box to label it with other topics that might help describe your writing.

New category for blog directory?

I'm curious -- I noticed that there was no category in the Blog Directory for science-themed blogs. Is there a reason for that omission?
