Nature Publishing Has Blogs

I just read in Library Stuff that Nature Research Journals and Web Publishing have recently launched three blogs:
1) Action Potential - "Action Potential is a blog by the editors of Nature Neuroscience - and a forum for our readers, authors and the entire neuroscience community. We'll discuss what's new and exciting in neuroscience, be it in our journal or elsewhere."
2) Free Association - "Welcome to Free Association, the Nature Genetics blog. Check here regularly for links and editorial comment on research and news in genetics, as well as reader feedback."
3) Nascent - "Nature Publishing Group's blog on web technology and science."

Nature Publishing is also podcasting as well. So far it looks like they do four podcasts a month (one per week).
Here is a list of their podcast programs.
  • 01 December 2005: Touch down on Titan, the giant water scorpion, Ebola virus hunters, stem-cell controversies, and chilling news on the Gulf Stream.
  • 24 November 2005: Pharaoh ant highway codes, high temperature super conductors, body-snatching tunicates, the E. coli camera, mosquito bites, and touching base with the latest product from Google.
