      I posted 13 times in January. That is, on A Blog Around The Clock only (not counting the posts on The Network Central, The SA Incubator, Video of the Week, Image of the Week, or editing Guest Blog and Expeditions).

      New stuff:

      Commenting threads: good, bad, or not at all.

      Why the NYTimes “Green Blog” Is Now Essential

      Why horses and slivovitz are essential for writing science online

      ‘Echo-chamber’ is just a derogatory term for ‘community’

      What I learned about science blogging/writing this year

      ScienceOnline2012 interviews:

      ScienceOnline - crossing a river with Anton Zuiker

      ScienceOnline2012 – interview with Cathy Clabby

      ScienceOnline2012 – interview with Allie Wilkinson

      ScienceOnline2012 – interview with Chris Gunter

      ScienceOnline2012 – interview with Sean Ekins

      ScienceOnline2012 – interview with Anthony Salvagno

      ScienceOnline2012 – interview with Sarah Webb
