!Eureka, my blog didn't make the Top 30!

~
What kind of limey list is Eureka's Top 30 Science Blogs, anyway.

Gadzooks, even WattsUpHisButt made the cut.

Wait, wait, still time for redemption.
So, now we’ve shown you ours, we want you to show us yours. We know our 30 blogs are not exhaustive; they’re a subjective take on the best bloggers out there. We’d like you to help us us to compile the definitive list, the Top 100 Science Blogs. Send the name and url of your favourites to eureka@thetimes.co.uk, with “Best blogs” in the subject line.
Blimey, shake a leg. The Times's awastin'.
