OpenLab 2008: more geobloggery needed. Much more

Time is running out to submit entries for the next edition of the Open Laboratory blogging anthology, and running down Bora’s latest list of posts submitted so far reveals very few geologically-themed ones. In fact, I could find but two: this post from Callan, and one from the SVPOW guys. Only two? This needs to be rectified.
In 2007’s anthology, Kim and myself were the sole representatives of the geoblogosphere. This time, it would be nice to mirror the explosive growth of our community in the past year with lots more geoblogging present, both in the list of nominations and in the final anthology. If we all submit something of our own that we’re particularly proud of, and/or nominate one or two of our favourite posts from our fellows, then the first objective will be achieved. Then we’ll just have to remind the judges that most of us have big pointy hammers. Not that we’re trying to imply anything by that, of course…
As for myself, I’m thinking of possibly submitting this, or this, or perhaps even this. Or… Suggestions would be welcomed. In the meantime, I’m also going to be sure to take some time to find and submit some of the finer work of my infinitely more talented geoblogospheric colleages. Get to it, before someone starts thinking that biology and physics are better or something.
