Take a moment and get caught up in these tangles of links:
Otherwise, chat among yourselves (hmmm…seems to be a lot of these open threads around here lately. Don’t worry, next week I’ll tell you all to shut up, it’s my turn.)
Here are a few carnival announcements, but mainly what I’ve got is announcements of impending carnivals—there’s going to be a bunch coming out next week, I guess.
Carnival of the Liberals wants your links! Deadline is next Tuesday.
Tangled Bank needs more links! Deadline is next Tuesday.
Skeptics’ Circle seeks submissions! Deadline is early next Wednesday.
Discuss the imminent dissolution of the blogosphere into collections of links linking to other collections of links, which will lead either to irrelevance and destruction, or reach a critical level of self-reference that will generate consciousness as an emergent property. Or whatever else you feel like.
A couple of science carnivals will liven up your Sunday evening:
We’ve harvested a fine collection of links this week:
Circus of the Spineless #25 (there’s a tattoo parlor I want to visit!)
Comment on whatever you will!
Hey! Go read these! You can talk about anything you want in the comments!
Next week’s Tangled Bank will be hosted at OK so I’m not really a cowboy. Send your links directly to indiancowboysblog-at-gmail.com, or to host@tangledbank.net, or to me. Any new volunteers to host? The next open slots are available in February and later.
We just had one of these!
Well, just to flesh it out a little more with some random links, here are some photos. I was told the second one made someone think of me (warning: body modification!). And, jebus help me, for some reason I thought this photo was very sexy. Or appetizing. I don’t know, something in the midbrain flickered.
Oh, and several of us sciencebloggers were interviewed for an article by Eva Amsen on “Who benefits from science blogging?” It doesn’t mention the benefit of people sending you pictures that tickle the cingulate.
Now the physicists are putting together carnivals: it’s Philosophia Naturalis #1. Hey, aren’t these carnivals kind of like…stamp collecting?
A few carnivals have popped up:
Also, Mendel’s Garden #6 is looking for submissions — it will be hosted at The Voltage Gate tomorrow!
The newest edition of the Tangled Bank, Tangled Bank #62—Travel Bingo edition, is now up at the Hairy Museum of Natural History. The editor went all out for this one and made custom icons for each entry: don’t you wish you’d submitted something now?
