The State of the Superposition

Right then! I've been thinking about where I want this blog to go, so I want to update you all on what might be coming your way in the near future.

Up until now I've been writing about science, degrees, PhDs and some science related things. But, now I'm heading into thesis writing territory I'm going to change the subject matter ever so slightly. The reason for this is pretty simple. I'm going to be writing about science (my science in fact) for long periods of my day and the idea of writing even more about just science or my PhD doesn't feel very fun. I'll probably do an odd PhD related posts about writing a thesis or something else, but don't expect as much university related content. Instead my idea is that Superposition of Sciences will branch out and look at science in the media, from woks of fiction to documentaries to news stories. Why? Well, it's something that I find particularly interesting at the moment and I have opinions on it; so hopefully I'll have something to say and we'll have new a superposition (overlap) of science and the media, instead of just different sciences.

Thanks for reading so far and I hope you still will as I move into this new area of discussion.

Later this week you can expect to see a new link round up and a fresh post will appear next week.

Nine Months of BLOGden Blogging

I hadn't really remembered until I saw a message on the Ogden Trust facebook page but, officially anyway, my time as a Odgen Trust Blogger (BLOGden Blogger) has actually come to an end as of 1st September. I started this blog as part of the BLOGden project to hopefully share my experiences as an alumni of the trust with other people. However, just because BLOGden is over, that doesn't mean I'll be stopping writing. Oh no. I'll still be here tapping away every week posting links, new articles about what I've been up to and bits of PhD/Science related information and stories that I manage to conjure out of my brain.

While I'm here, I'd like to say thank you very much for taking the time to read my blog. It's always nice to see that my traffic counter has gone up when I log on and I hope you've enjoyed what I've written so far and continue to enjoy the things I write in the future.

That's the main message done. As I'm a scientist, I can't help but give you some data to sum up my BLOGden time, but feel free to look away now!

Between 31st January & 31st August I have:
Written 33 posts
Had 1337 views (not all of those are from my parents... I hope)
Had an average of 191 views per month
With "I've got an answer, but what's the question again?" being my most viewed (clicked on) post with a grand total of 65 views

Wow. That's pretty awesome! Fingers crossed the next 7 months will go just as well.
