Sean already mentioned it, and now that I'm feeling a bit better I want to as well: The annual 3QuarksDaily science writing contest nominees are out. You can vote here. Too many of my friends are up for nomination, so I'm going to avoid making any endorsements. But it's a nice curation of awesome blogs and posts.
