Today's Webtip: 350 years of Science!

The Royal Society is getting ready to celebrate.

Three and a half centuries of science is nothing to sneeze at. Unless you have a cold. As a matter of fact, it's enough time to publish about 60,000 works.

Royal Society

Founded in 1650, and publishing since 1665, the Royal Society is getting ready to have a very big birthday. To celebrate, the society has put 60 articles online in a nifty little presentation that provides a timeline of scientific and historic developments. Each piece is accompanied by a commentary and some include links to further information.
