Australian SF Blog Carnival February, part 2
As promised, some that were missed. and apologies to all those missed this time, too, as I’m going through a rather disorganised week. Thansk to nyssa p for throwing lots of these my way, but all ommissions remain my fault.
And, please, pass these around, tell your friends. This month is tell your pals about how great sf is month. Every month is tell your pals how great sf is month.

Just on the Authonomy POD thing: this project was to go ‘live’ in February, but since I, and a few other Authonomy members, received Emails about it, and some others (not me for a change) made a big stink out of it, I’ve heard nothing. I don’t know what HC decided to do, if they’ve decided to pull the plug temporarily or indefinitely, or why. I’d be interested to know.
