#2 blog for the statistics geek?!

Julien pointed out to me that the ‘Og was #2 in this list of “40 fascinating blogs for the ultimate statistics geek“… Dunno how to take it! I also note Statisfaction ranked as #4 and Freakanometrics as #5, which sounds like the ranking is a wee haphazard, the latter blog having at least four times as much trafffic as the ‘Og and focussing solely on statistics, acturial science, R programming, and related scientific questions! (Still, verrry nice to make it to a list!)

A collective blog has been started by the statistics students and postdocs at CREST, in the wake of the Valencia meeting. It is called Statisfaction. (The Rolling Stones of Statistics?! Actually, Andrew Gelman also has a post with that title… And it is even part of the Urban Dictionnary!) Since I have no responsability nor even say in the contents of this independent blog, I cannot help but recommend following it! The latest posting is about the slides of Peter Müller’s slides of his Santa Cruz course in Bayesian nonparametrics being available on line.
