Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Shameless Plug for a Favourite Blogger

by DeAnander Tue Jun 28th, 2005 at 11:08:39 PM EST

I would just like to introduce a "friend whom I have never met", Cosma Shalizi, imho one of the best bloggers out there.  His professional home is the Center for the Study of Complex Systems at UM;  his "Three Toed Sloth:  Slow Takes from the Canopy of the Reality-Based Community" is a treasure trove of good writing, good science, and good (often trenchant) humour.  Just the titles of his mini-essays are a delight to scan, and a wander through one of his many topic collections always leaves me thinking, "Gee, I wish I could write like that."  Than which there is no higher compliment among the scribbling classes :-)

just reading through the categories. Well, I bookmarked the site for rainy days:-). There are so many interesting topics, so the dilemma is where to begin. Thanks for the link.

He's cool, but no RSS feed. How can I follow his site?

Hmm...who would I plug? Juan Cole, for sure...and I've really enjoyed and learned from the combined efforts of the economic bloggers...bondad, London Yank (who has seemed to disappear, and hope he finds EuroTrib), our esteemed Jerome, and others who am I forgetting at the moment. Plus Booman and Dkos (even with all the recent controversy and heavier traffic). Discovering the blogs has been a revolution for me...
