Woooo! ?One year of science-art!
It?s the Scientific American Blog Network?s 1st blogiversary, and it?s time to celebrate.
Happy 1st Blogiversary to all #SciAmBlogs! And to us. We're totally eatin' that cherry cheesecake right there.
Here?s a bit of what we were up to this past year:
- 106 posts, average 8.83 posts a month
- Featured 143 different artists (+/-), with links in our Scumble and Buzz posts to dozens more
- Artwork by members of 4 different species
- 280+ comments on the blog, a lot of conversation on Facebook, Twitter and G+.
- Helped prompt major change in Pinterest?s Terms of Service through copyright discussion
- Exposed the Incredible Hulk
- Generally partied like rockstars with other science-art rockstars (?please sort out only the raw umber M&M?s, I loathe the burnt sienna ones??)
Expect to see a post in coming days indexing everything we?ve posted so far!
But that?s not all.
Put your handprint on the cave wall! Or um, comment instead!
