About a year ago I started following r/bioinformatics. I work at a research institute where bioinformatics plays a big role, but not being from that field I wanted to familiarize my self with the topics, problems, and solutions.

Then I bumped into this post: Any Bioinformatics blogs out there?

I started following the blogs in my RSS reader and that worked well. But then I thought it would be nice to have them all aggregated somehow. I remembered how convenient were the old planet sites that followed blogs on a similar topic.

So I decided to build one: bioinf-bloggers.com.

It is a static html rendered on gh-pages. I considered using Wordpress or something like that but it seemed like to much complications.

The repository is on GitHub. And contributions in the blogs that it should aggregate are welcome. Just make a PR editing the feeds.txt file. Other suggestions are also welcome.
