Default [OT] Looking for a sci/space/tech blog

Lately, my online life seems to have a great big technology/ news/ science/ space gadgetry hole in it, due to the apparent demise of http://www.adastragames.com/new.html
Updates have ground to a halt there, and the server seems to be getting flakier.

Anyone know of a good blog/ webpage that rounds up all the latest news and developments in space exploration / technology and general geekery?

I get my tech news mainly from popular science

http://www.popsci.com/popsci/

I recommend the virgin galactic video.

there's always slashdot

http://slashdot.org/

I rarely look at that one though. I'm not that big a nerd, despite technically being a website administrator (well at most a trainee) .

For general geekery, there is arstechnica.com, which has journals (since blog is just a trendy fad term anyways ).

Try http://www.spaceref.com/ A site and Email server with space news. Not so much science and tech, but lots of space.

Thanks, Parasite's link was probably the one that fitted my needs closest, although the others yielded interesting links as well. If anyone has any more, please keep them coming.

I like Tom's Hardware and the associated TG Daily sites for (mostly) computer related tech news.
