Here's a nice little effort taking place in the blogosphere to draw attention to attempts by bloggers to discuss or comment on up-to-the-minute research. The plan is to offer "an icon and an aggregation site where others can look to find the best academic blogging on the Net."

Well, I'm not really an academic blogger. I'm a science teacher who happens to blog, but I think this idea has merit so I'm going to talk it up here and in the future when I'm riffing on peer-reviewed research I'm going to try to follow their guidelines. It just seems like the responsible thing to do.
