I’ve been remiss in failing to note a nontrivial and, one hopes, adaptive* change in the fabric of the science blogosphere: Jeremy Fox, probably the most prominent voice at the Oikos blog since 2011, is striking out on his own with a new site, Dynamic Ecology. He’s already off to a strong start, so update your RSS readers and bookmarks accordingly, folks, lest you miss the next installment in the “zombie ideas” saga.◼

* Apparently some people might be tempted to say that, since Fox’s move is a dispersal event, it is likely to be a product of “neutral” ecological processes; but readers of the Oikos blog will immediately recongize that this is a very silly thing to say.
