I have recently started tagging articles using Google Reader. This is a tool that allows me to easily post stories that I've read online.

If you would like to, you can subscribe to the feed provided and then you can easily keep track of stuff that I've been reading.

Google Reader is an alternative to me emailing links to articles I have been reading. Sort of a simplified blog. If you were subscribed, you may have noticed that I am no longer using this blog. So, check things out there if you are interested.

The return of science

What a really great piece on the return of science.  I also found the comments on China interesting.

"There is no democracy in China, and some would argue that despite that nation’s vast resources and potential, there will not be vigorous science there either until the Chinese leaders take seriously what Mao proclaimed back in 1955 and then cynically withdrew: Let a hundred flowers bloom, let a hundred schools of thought contend."
