This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American
Those of you reading this are probably most familiar with this science blogging network - the Scientific American blogs. But this is just one of several blog networks hosted by Nature Publishing Group (NPG), Scientific American and/or our partners in other countries.
You may remember a few months ago when Nature Network and English-language version of SciLogs fused into a much better network, which you really should be following (and it's easy, as we have a widget for them on our sidebar, scroll down a little and look to the right), the SciLogs.com.
The NPG editorial blogs can be found here. And there are also SciLogs networks in other languages and countries, including: German, Spanish and Dutch.

Today, I am very pleased to announce a big relaunch and expansion of one of our sister networks, the Nature Education's blog network - Scitable.
