Almost every night, you can find the summary and links of all the blog posts published that day at the Scientific American blog network. But once a month, you are given a special treat – a video in which Carin Bondar of the Psi Vid blog highlights a few of the most interesting blog posts of the previous month.

Scientific American was well represented at the The 63rd Annual Lindau Meeting with editor Fred Guterl, freelancer Kathleen Raven, and blogger Ashutosh Jogalekar. In the video Ashutosh reports how it felt to be there.
