Cross-platform Follow Friday #ff 4th Edition

Here are my (somewhat Doctor Who heavy this week) recommendations for stuff on t'internet you should check out:

• Solo Blogger - Nanila - A scientist working on (amongst other things) the Cassini space stuff and other things of awesome, Nanila is also a genuinely engaging writer and a cool person.


• Group Blog - Doctor Her (syndicated to DW as doctor_her_feed) - Feminist Who discussions. Very indepth and intellectual, and utterly absorbing.


• Twitterer - Colin Baker - the best Doctor on twitter. Also, it's his birthday today, so send him felicitations.


• Pinterest Board - Dirty WHOers by Terry Lightfoot - Terry is one of the crew for the Dirty WHOers podcast, and here she pins pictures that are generally pretty funny, an always Who-related.


• Google Plusser - Doctor Who - which I am now on the mod team for :).


• Other - The Wyrd Ways Rock Show Podcast - covers all things rock and metal for two hours a week, from the depths of black metal to classic Queen to cock rock to emo. Also is presented by a guy with a comfortingly Northern accent, and who is not afraid of playing stuff by bands with GIRLS in. For one thing, he introduced me to the fabulous Nightqueen... Comes with the Miss Holly seal of approval, mainly because when you download it you get a shiny new picture of The Mighty Thor every week.
