Hello everyone. After some good time of work, I am proud to present: www.r-bloggers.com What is R-Bloggers.com? R-Bloggers.com hopes to serve the R community by presenting (in one place) all the new articles (posts) written (in English) about R in the "R blogosphere". How does R-Bloggers operate? This site aggregates feeds (only with permission!) from participating R blogs. The beginnings of each participating blog’s posts will automatically be displayed on the main page with links to the original posts; inside every post there is a link to the original blog and links to other related articles. All participating blogs will have links in the “Contributors” section of our sidebar What does R-Bloggers offer the community? - Discover: If every blogger will add itself, we will all be able to find new R blogs (which is hard to find on the web, if you ever tried). The site also allows to search in the content of the bloggers (although for searches of older content - you better go to the blogs themselves or wait for the customized google search box I will add in the future) - Follow: Enter your e-mail and subscribe to receive a daily digest with teasers of new posts from participating blogs. You will more easily get a sense of hot topics in the R blogosphere. - Connect: Click on “Fan this site” to become a "fan" of R Bloggers. You can “friend” other people and share thoughts on our wall. Or just by leaving comments on the blog. - Participate: Add your R blog to get increased visibility (for readers and search engines) with permanent links on our Contributors sidebar. Your blog will also gain visibility via our e-mail digest and through your presence on the main page with posts. How do I become a participating blog in R Bloggers? To add your blog, simply click on Add your blog!<http://www.r-bloggers.com/add-your-blog/> and enter the required information. I will review your link and approve it in a timely fashion. How can I help? We share readers to gain readers! If you are interested and haven’t already, please submit your blog <http://www.r-bloggers.com/add-your-blog/>. Also please consider putting *a link from your blog* to R-Bloggers from your sidebar (we do the same for you); you can even put up a post about us - if each blogger will do so - all of us will gain from it. Who started R-Bloggers (and way)? R Bloggers was started by Tal Galili <http://talgalili.com/>. After searching for numerous R blogs, Tal (well, me) decided that there must be more R blogs our there then he knows about, and maybe the best way for finding them is to make them find him. You can reach Tal via the Contact<http://www.r-bloggers.com/contact-us/> page (or just e-mail him: tal.galili@gmail.com). Extra thanks and a deceleration of "good intentions" I would like to thank John, Yihui, Jaanus and Taiyun for being the first bloggers to allow me to enlist their blogs to the project. There are more R bloggers out there that I know of, and didn't get to ask for permission. I apologies to you for not contacting you personally, still If you are one such blogger, and you want to join the site, please feel welcome to submit your blog <http://www.r-bloggers.com/add-your-blog/>. I hope this e-mail was not an abuse of the R mailing list. Since I intended this project for the good of the R community I allowed myself to publish the site here, so I hope it wouldn't upset anyone. Best wishes to all, Tal ----------------Contact Details:------------------------------------------------------- Contact me: Tal.Galili@gmail.com | 972-52-7275845 Read me: www.talgalili.com (Hebrew) | www.biostatistics.co.il (Hebrew) | www.r-statistics.com/ (English) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

But how is that different from
http://PlanetR.stderr.org
which has been doing the same quite admirably for years?
