I have been given notice that the Scientific American network (10 or so sites) will be promoted in either the Oct or Nov edition of Sciam (may include international edition). So keep an eye out for PF if you pick up those months issues! :approve:
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Thats great news Greg! How much more traffic do you expect that to generate?

you think a lot of people visit sites listed in a magazine?
 
Congrats, Greg! You're hitting the Big Time!

I think a lot of people read SciAm. But how many pay attention to the promotion - I guess we'll see. Maybe you should get a batch of PF T-shirts, tote bags, . . . . :biggrin:

PF swimwear would be cool :-p
 
Mugs and mouse pads... :smile:

For the first few years we did run a cafepress store with PF shirts! I have thought about bringing it back with "at cost" prices.

Are there any T-shirts in stock?

Did they have pockets?

Actually I prefer sleeveless T-shirts - but they've got to have a pocket.

We have sleeveless. No pockets though.

Or at least funny PF sayings or PF gags.

My university physics society was desperate to come up with something funny to go on the back of their hoodies. In the end they went with a picture of a cat with the caption: "Wanted: dead or alive. Schrödinger's cat."

Just out of curiosity, why? You can just tape your pocket protector directly to your shirt.

It would just pull off. Besides the pocket is for scrap paper. I can clip the pens, mechpencils and highlighters to the collar. Having a pocket is just more convenient.

depending on the review yes I do. Especially the kind of people who read Scientific American. Especially a site like PF. I think there are a lot of people out there who will check it out. I don't know how many will stick around, but I'd expect a huge hit when the magazine comes out.

Congrats Greg!
