Premature celebration

Ginger Taylor is claiming victory when it was announced that the Science Blogs website will be shutting down at the end of October.

It’s still there but it’s in read only mode. This is because those who have blogs hosted there need the time to transfer their blogs to a new host. Orac AKA David Gorski for instance is moving Respectful Insolence to it’s own server at respectfulinsolence.com. The others are doing the same thing.

Taylor tried to play down the celebration – but she can’t. She clearly sees this as a win for her. It’s not. The move has nothing to do with any pressure on the site from these nutcases – except maybe the number of entries required just overloaded the server. It’s about time Taylor was overloaded, because she needs to pull her head in.
