Here is mine to start: ATinyGreenCell.com

I just got it set up so lots of content soon to come. I focus mostly on protoplasts and plant related hackery. I'm gonna post all my protocols with pretty pictures in PDF form and host them on my server. Hope more people will add to the list of blogs. I can't wait to see all the awesome projects going on!

Good stuff, let the list grow!

This is my website/blog about my current projects, one of which is making diy restrictive enzymes (which really are DIY. By the end I want to make it so it will grow in LB, or homemade media, without antibiotics, and to harvest enzyme you won't even need a centrifuge :)

The second is integrating a genome into bacillus, making it express all of its genes, then literally excising the genome and making it TAKE OVER THE CELL :D. I am creating the system so people can make it modular, such as one person can do their share and synthesize/pcr the citric acid cycles genes, and put that into a BAC. These BACs use something I thought up called "Genome Bricks". Genome Bricks are like biobricks, but they don't hold proteins, they hold entire operons or entire synthetic pathways. The restrictive enzyme sites it uses don't occur in Bacillus or E coli, making it perfect for synthesizing parts of E coli to make a modular, open source e coli. (A strain which I would like to call "Escherichia coli "Linuxium"" :D)

Anyone like the idea of linking all of our blogs through a central page on each site so someone that finds one of our pages can find them all?

Very 1995, but not a bad idea.  I will add a page like that to my site.

I'm definitely going to have links to all the DIY Bio blogs on this list. Maybe with a one liner explaining the distinct work being done and name of the researcher.

Link pages were what people did before search engines, and they're important for keeping the internet healthy. If anyone's running wordpress, you can insert a sidebar for this called a "blogroll" (can be renamed), or a separate page if you like.

The other thing people did was "webrings", where everyone put a banner on their site which pointed to the "next" site in the ring, or a random site. These days there are probably even better tools, like ones that perform semantic analysis on the current page and suggest pages on *other* webring members with related content. Thar'd be fun; when either I or Koeng post about bacilli or enzymes (funny overlap there!), our posts would crosslink.

After each Do It Together Bio meet up we write blogs on our website, listed here: waag.org/en/project/do-it-together-bio
There is also a video of each workshop.

A while ago I started a pinterest for DIYBio too http://pinterest.com/diybio/news/

indiebiotech.com - My biotech blog where I talk about all things
Free/Libre Biotech when I have the time and inclination; rare for those
to coincide, so it's been quiet lately..

My blog is more DIY Science/Programming/Engineering than specific to DIY Bio but I think people still might enjoy reading it?
