      The previous post was my last From The Blogosphere column for Nature. I’ve retired from it after nearly two years (the first column was on 10 May 2007).
      Other editors are continuing to write the column for the journal’s author page, but it won’t appear in every issue.
      The author page appears immediately before the journal’s masthead, and immediately after the “this issue” editors’ summaries, each week. Online, the author page is free to access. It can be found at the top of the journal’s table of contents, under “Also this week”, in the august company of editors’ summaries and podcasts (also free).
      It’s been fun writing the column but I feel it is time to take a break and let someone else have a go.
      I am continuing to write at Nautilus, and occasionally at Peer-to-Peer, so I look forward to seeing you there, or around and about at Nature Network.
      Best wishes
      Maxine.

          Better belated than never? Consoled by the fact that you will be remaining hooked in to the network!

          Maxine, I’m very relieved that you will still be around in many other ways.

          Hmm. Going out with no fanfare, no prepared speeches? That must mean you really want to move on, so you don’t get convinced otherwise. I’ll get my Maxine fix from your other writing, then, and will keep studying it until I figure out that Superwoman gig of yours. Thanks for setting a great example!
