Via Sree: "The Knight Science Journalism Tracker is a new Web-based service for journalists who cover science, environment and health. Check it out at http://ksjtracker.mit.edu. It's a service of the Knight Science Journalism Fellowships. Our goal is to provide a broad sampling of the past day's stories in these areas and, where possible, of press releases or other news tips related to generation of news in the general circulation news media. Our goal is to have a new batch of posts up each day by 1 pm Eastern time." Back to school with you! How to Take Perfect Lecture Notes.
