From celebrity gossip to favorite lunch spots, nowadays almost anyone with a computer is blogging about something. Want to read about topics you actually care about? Here are a few interesting neurology-related ones. For those of you who are new to the blogosphere, a blog is an online personal journal which often also contains the blogger's reaction to relevant news, links to articles and Web sites of interest, and a place for readers to respond to what the blogger writes.
