#SciAmBlogs Thursday - citizen science, Flame Challenge, drone journalism, birth of a volcano, complex brains, and more.

This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American


Folio Magazine had a nice article earlier today about Scientific American website, blogs, digital subscriptions, mobile offers, and social media - check it out: Scientific American Sees Digital Boom.

Last day of the month? Yup! Thus, a new episode of Best of the Blogs!
