Every couple of weeks I swing by 75 Degrees South, a blog describing preparations leading up to November, when the author will begin working for the British Antarctic Survey. It's an interesting peek into the decisions he's had to make, from the personal electronics he hopes to take to recent deliberations on how much liquor one purchases to last out ten months. Hopefully he'll keep posting once he goes south.

Another blog that's new to me and might be new to you is Terra Nova, a blog from Play Money's Jullian Dibble and others on "our world and its synthetic offspring: MMORPGs, toy worlds, social worlds, and other realms of emergent collective reality."
