This week in the blogs
Sunday, February 8th, 2009It is Sunday, so it is time for me to list the blog posts I found interesting this week.
This week I've had a bit of a fight with creationism, so I've read some blog posts on that, but I am not going to dignify the discussion with linking to them here.
Instead it will just be the usual list of programming and bioinformatics links.
Enjoy!
