The Synapse now has a permanent page

The Synapse now has a permanent page with some kickass clip art for icons. Click on The Synapse at the top of this page. Check back often for the newest issue and submission guidelines. The current submission date is the 25th of June.

UPDATE: By the way (I am so skatterbrained), we are not the only proud neuroscience carnival on the web. Neurophilosopher's Blog is organizing the first Encephalon starting on July 3rd. Interested parties should submit to encephalon_submit {AT} yahoo {DOT} com. Neuroscience is a big world people, so I am certain there is more than enough of it to go around.

Here's a suggestion: set up a gmail address for The Synapse. Then you can forward the submissions to the new host each submission cyclee.

Thanks coturnix for pointing out that problem.

I have also changed the email on the site to a gmail email. Thanks Dave.

I have never been part of a carnival before. Does the submission have to be something not yet posted or an old post? Something old, new, or blue?

In general you send something that we published during the prior two week period -- though for the first one I haven't been holding people to that. Definitely something already posted because I have to link to it. And color is no object though I myself prefer yellow.
