More Blogs
By Jon Agar, on 10 October 2008
This STS Observatory is a new experience for some of us at the Department of Science and Technology Studies (STS). So what other related blogs are out there? Peter Smith recently sent me this list of blogs that interest him. I post it without comment. I’m planning to put together a brief guide to blogs that relate to science policy, history of science, philosophy of science, SSK, etc etc, so if you have any suggestions, please add a comment. (JA)

A few more or less related blogs, which are more or less active:
Framing Science http://scienceblogs.com/framing-science
Biopolitical Times http://www.biopoliticaltimes.org/
And from California:
Vital Systems Security http://anthropos-lab.net/vss/
Biopower and the Contemporary http://anthropos-lab.net/bpc/Christopher Kelty’s blog on the cultural significance of free software is also worth a look, as it gives readers the chance to both comment on and ‘modulate’ the book which the website mirrors
