- UT Austin STS Nanolog Nanotechnology is going to change our lives completely - maybe it's time to start talking about it. Nanoscience has the potential to affect every aspect of the world as we know it - from health, to work, to art, to the environment. The STS Program at UT Austin is launching an online forum for informed public discussion on nanotechnology, where people from all walks of life and perspectives can share their insights, opinions, questions, and answers about the impacts of nanotechnology.
- 321Blog by Stefan Smagula doubles as course site
- "Mindfull" by Student Pugwash USA MindFull is a blog project of Student Pugwash USA, an educational, nonprofit organization that prepares science, technology and policy students to make social responsibility a guiding focus of their academic and professional endeavors. Activities encourage young people to probe the reasons for scientific advancement and the implications of technology on citizens’ everyday lives. Student Pugwash USA, the U.S. student affiliate of the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, has roots in the 1955 Manifesto conceived by Albert Einstein and Bertrand Russell that implored scientists everywhere to “learn to think in a new way” about their moral responsibilities in science.

[edit] Blogs in French
- Eric Brian, who teaches history of science at the Ecole normale supérieure and is head of topic for the Sciences de la Société doctoral school (ENS/EHESS), has launched his blog-like website, as soon as 1999.
- Enro maintains Enro, scientifique et citoyen. Another French blog about interactions between science and society with strong plea for consensus conferences and public understanding of science. The author is a patent information specialist currently studying an MSc in Social studies of science and technology at Université Louis Pasteur, France.
- François Briatte's “Boîte Noire” blog has notes on the strong programme and the Edinburgh school, where he has taken a few classes from September to December 2006, notably the Sociology of scientific knowledge (SSK) with David Bloor. Some of his posts draw loosely on STS material, e.g. his post on public understandings of science. His personal assignments for these courses are available to download. His website also features a science studies page, with a slight medical focus. François Briatte studies Political Science in Grenoble and is currently a visitor in Edinburgh, two cities with STS programmes.
Both Enro and François are enrolled in the Circle for Scientific Assessment and in the Café des Sciences, a collective initiative that groups science-orientated blogs written in French.
- A blog (sort of) by Rigas Arvanitis. Contains personal musings but has two professional sections. One on science and technology policy and another on technological learning, that is the experience of entreprises in acquiring and developing technology, specially so in the developing world. Rigas is also member of Knowledge and development team at IRD (France).
