DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Jennie Rigg
The world is going to hell in a handcart, credit is crunching, Gaza is imploding, and what’s the biggest story on the Blogosphere? The new Doctor Who. The first (and one of the best) of the reactions came from BBC insider Pickwick, but many others followed. Here are the ones that jumped out at me from the clamour: Alex Wilcock, Love and Garbage, Will Howells, Exmoor Cat, NetgirlY2K, Lizbee, Chicken Yoghurt, Baggage Reclaim, Andrew Hickey, Paul Mudie, James Graham, and the sainted GNeil.
In non-Who news: not much
Unity meets the new year, same as the old year.
Aldabra wishes the British government would stop throwing good money after bad.
Junkfood Science on the politicisation of food and the fact that the fandom word bansturbation has gone mainstream.

And, as always, Septicisle has more.
