In summary, Physics Post is a website that has been around for four years and contains larger science related articles, 300+ words in length. Some highlight articles are written by well-known scientists and the website ranks #1 on Google for "physics articles" and #8 for "science articles". It receives several thousand pageviews a day and offers $5 per accepted article via PayPal. Physics Blog, on the other hand, features shorter science related news and commentary pieces, around 50-200 words each. It is mainly written by one author but is looking for more contributors. The blog ranks #1 on Google for "physics blog" and receives several hundred pageviews a day. Both websites are open to new authors

I'd love to help you out on this, Greg, but I can't. While I consider myself a reasonably good writer, I simply don't have the knowledge required for such a thing. My time is limited, as well. If, on the other hand, someone with marginal writing skills would like to collaborate, I'd be happy to help him/her express the thoughts. This is not a pledge of any sort, but I will certainly entertain the notion.

So, what kind of entries are we going for in the blog?

Can you remind us what kind of content you would like to see in the Blog? Kind of the best of PF? Or just commentary on news items? Mainly physics or any of the sciences? (engineering too?) (critical thinking/skepticism?)

Greg,

I've registered at www.physicsforums.com/blog[/URL], but at the moment I only know how to post comments. How do I go about writing an article?

Hi Greg. I don't have an article to submit to Physics Post, but I've found one which contains a fair few errors/omissions. Would you be interested in accepting some corrections?

Are new authors still accepted for physicspost? when I clicked on "Become a physics author", it redirected me to a login page for Yahoo.

I would be interested in writing physics articles. I have a PhD in physics and over ten years of teaching experience.
