What kind of science interests you?? (Nanoscience, but I would like a more generalized magazine.)

What experience do you have with science??( A lot, if you consider research. )

You want popularized science or the actual papers?( I am fond of these common novel ideas, but I would prefer actual papers.)
 
Sorry for perhaps repeating the question but do you want a magazine or a journal? If you are interested in nanotechnology I would recommend nature nanotechnology.
 
Science, a nice combination of news and views and actual publications. Or Scientific American for popular articles? Just look at the websites and see what interests you most, from there you can move to more specific journals.
 
I have found and read some decent science research in the Wall Street Journal . I was kind of blown away by it too. I was going to post on a couple of the articles. To my dismay, the body of them are hidden behind a pay wall, so I couldn't share my discussions of them if I wanted to. However, if I continue to find well researched source of interesting topics. I may break down and subscribe for three months to see if I find them worthy of the expense. Here is an good example.
