Where the ScienceBlog exodees went

The wonderful Skulls in the Stars is kindly keeping tabs on the virtual whereabouts of the bloggers who left Scienceblogs over PepsiGate. I thought I’d pass on the information here for those who aren’t in Skull’s feedstreams. Though you should go to Skulls and subscribe etc, as thanks for this.

This was updated this morning:

  • Anne Jefferson and Chris Rowan of Highly Allochthonous have found a new home for their blog within the brand-new domain name all-geo.org.

  • Eric Michael Johnson of The Primate Diaries has decided to leave SBs; he doesn’t have a new home yet, but can be found on his Twitter andFacebook accounts.

  • Blake Stacey of Science After Sunclipse has returned to his original wordpress blog. [DD ed note: Stacey lodged a comment saying plans for blogging frequency still unclear)

  • Scicurious of Neurotopia has returned to her site at are you scicurious?

  • Brian Switek hasn’t decided where he’ll end up, though possibly at hisold wordpress site.  In the meantime, he can be found on the author page for his upcoming book, and also writing posts for Dinosaur Tracking for the Smithsonian.

  • David Dobbs is now at Neuron Culture.

  • Dave Bacon, The Quantum Pontiff, has returned to his original blog in a move only partly related to Pepsi.

  • Alex Wild of Myrmecos returning to his old site.

  • Rebecca Skloot of Culture Dish has, at least for the moment, moved her blog to her personal site.

  • Mark Chu-Carroll of Good Math, Bad Math is officially leaving Scienceblogs.

A few folks are still on hiatus to think things through or to see how things play out: currently only Superbug seems to be openly on hiatus.

  • Mike, the Mad Biologist has tentatively decided to stay with SBs.

  • Class M has decided to stay with SBs in light of the reversal regarding PepsiCo.

  • Eruptions has tentatively decided to stay with SBs.

  • The Thoughtful Animal is “cautiously optimistic” about SBs and hasdecided to stay.

  • Causaubon’s Book feels that management exceeded her expectations in fixing the mess and is back to work.

  • Reports of Living the Scientific Life (Scientist, Interrupted) leaving seem to have been mistaken; she appears to be staying for the moment.

Note: Carl Zimmer is also keeping a list of evacuees here.
