I’m giving the final exam in my E&M class tonight (from 5-7 pm, thank you oh-so-much, Central Scheduling), which you might think would bode well for blogging in the future. However, I also have two summer students starting on Monday, a baby on the way, and major book revisions to do that need to get done before the baby arrives, if that’s possible.<\/p>\n
Somethings’s got to give, and the blog is it. There’s just no way I can maintain the posting levels I have for the past several months, so I’m not even going to try. The site won’t be going completely dark– I’ve got a few things in the mental queue– but I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel for filler post ideas, and I haven’t even had time to read and tag things for the del.icio.us links dumps.<\/p>\n
I’m also starting to feel a little frustrated about the whole enterprise, so it’s probably better to step back for a while before I completely sour on ScienceBlogs and blogging in general.<\/p>\n
If you need a new source of daily updates and commentary on news from physics, well, ScienceBlogs is sort of dropping the ball, other than His Holiness<\/a>. Tom at Swans On Tea<\/a> does a fantastic job, though (I particularly recommend his commentary on the overhype of “slow light”<\/a>), and Physics and Physicists<\/a> and Built on Facts<\/a> are both updating regularly with excellent stuff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m giving the final exam in my E&M class tonight (from 5-7 pm, thank you oh-so-much, Central Scheduling), which you might think would bode well for blogging in the future.
