Wiley-Blackwell blogs in Earth and Life Sciences

Two blogs I have recently come across from Wiley-Blackwell, the journal publishers, which could help you keep up to date with developments in these two areas:

Earth Sciences http://earth-pages.co.uk/
Life Sciences http://wisciblog.com/

Every couple of weeks a new journal article or book is highlighted and the science around it discussed and, as they are blogs, you can contribute to the discussion too.
