Janet tells me that it’s Blogroll Amnesty Day:

I think that the blogosphere is (or could be) different from media wherein news and commentary is “broadcast” to an audience by allowing back and forth communication — the kind of thing that works best when there’s a healthy community of people taking part in the conversation.

I want to hear the voices that are new to the conversation, or the ones that are speaking in the quieter corners that the high-traffic bloggers sometimes don’t notice. I want to hear from people whose experiences have differed from my own in interesting ways. (This is not to say that I don’t want to be in conversation with people who have had similar experiences — that’s important in a community, too.) I don’t want blogospheric hierarchies telling me who’s worth reading any more than I want network news producers telling me what stories I should care about.

Help me find the blogs that I ought to be reading. (This may include your blog — don’t be shy about telling me so!)

It’s been a while since I updated my blogroll to take account of the changes in the geoblogosphere, so I’ve just gone through and added some of the newer additions to the feed (and, of course, taken account of Yami/Maria’s assimilation into the Scibling fraternity, which I’m very excited about). But there are probably people that I’m missing off one, or both, so let me know if your rock blogging is not being properly advertised. I’m sure there’s also lots of academic and more generally sciency blogs that I’m reading, or should be reading, or should be returning the link-love to, so feel free to nag away.
