* fanfare *
Note: it launches officially on Wed, which means you’re welcome to go have a look, but we’re still fixing final bugs and details…
We’re doing it for a number of reasons, not least that we hope that it will encourage informed discussion, and that it will filter through into the mainstream media, providing story ideas, contacts and knowledge for NZ journalists.
And we think it will be cool :)
Of course, the bloggers won’t only be focusing on NZ science - they have free rein to talk about anything they choose, although we have asked that it’s more about science and less about new baby animals in the house (unless there’s an ecological/zoological tilt). Nonetheless, there will still be, we’re sure, posts about people’s music tastes, etc.
There’s a twitter feed, sciblogsnz, as well, which will show all the latest posts going up.
So yes, enjoy!
