One of the websites I help manage, The Panda’s Thumb, has received a 2005 Web Award from Scientific American. According to the magazine,
If it’s in the media and related to evolution, you’ll find it posted, dissected and debated on this lively and informative watchdog blog. Devoted to debunking all existing and nascent theories related to the anti-evolution movement, the site’s contributors comprise a passel of the world’s most vigilant and passionate biologists, geneticists, students and concerned citizens for whom stemming the tide of creationism and its offshoots is a full time job. The general public can join the fray in the “After the Bar Closes” forum, where political, religious and personal evolutionary arguments are given a full dressing-down by the site’s rowdy, articulate devotees.
Carl Zimmer’s The Loom and Chris Mooney’s The Intersection were also honored.
Congratulations!
