There are 86 days until the Science Blogging Conference. The wiki is looking good, the Program is shaping up nicely, and there is more and more blog and media coverage already. There are already 105 registered participants and if you do not register soon, it may be too late once you decide to do so (we’ll cap at about 230). Between now and the conference, I am highlighting some of the people who will be there, for you to meet in person if you register in time.
Science is not just physics, chemistry and biology. There are also psychology, anthropology, archaeology, economics, etc. And then, there are bloggers who write about history, sociology and philosophy of science. So here are some of those science bloggers making a long trek to the Triangle in January:
John McKay is a historian from Alaska who has been writing the Archy blog for, like, forever.
When he is not writing about his favourite topic – mammoths – John blogs about WWII, the Nazi stations on Antarctica, Velikovski and the current abuses and rewritings of history.

Mary Evelyn Starr is a contract archaeologist in the MidSouth, taking drafting/surveying classes at Northwest Mississippi Community College. Oh, and blogging, of course.

Martin Rundkvist is an archaeologist who is coming to the Conference all the way from Sweden. If you are reading the Scienceblogs.com, you must have read his fascinating Aardvarchaeology blog.
Martin and John will be leading a session on Blogging about the Social Sciences and Humanities.
In order to meet them, you know what you have to do: register! Registration is free. Check the map for nearby hotels. And sign up for the Friday dinner. If you are coming exchange information about where you are staying, if you are offering a ride, need a ride, or want to carpool on the Ride Board – just edit the wiki page and add the query or information.
Please use ‘scienceblogging.com’ as your tag when writing blog posts about it or uploading pictures. You can also download and print out the flyers (PDF1 and PDF2) and post them on bulletin boards at your office, lab or school.

Oh, I love Archy/John McKay! I read it pretty much every day. How cool that he’s coming down here. Wish I could be there!
Ah, how the world is small. Archy and I have been reading each other for years now and we are both so hyped about finally getting to meet each other and sharing a beer!
Yeah, I thought I recognized your blog alias. Now I know from where. 🙂
