SciTechDaily offers the best intelligent, informed science and technology coverage and analysis you can find on a daily basis, sourcing a huge range of great writers and excellent research institutes. It was founded in 1998 by Vicki Hyde, a friend of Denis Dutton (of Arts & Letters Daily fame) and was essentially a sister site to ALDaily.com.
