A change in focus is announced over at Betterhumans, historically a good source of healthy life extension news:

Today, for the first time, users of Betterhumans.com can submit news directly for approval by an editor. It wasn't easy to make this decision, but for several reasons I think that it's for the best. And it reflects a significant change in my thinking about the site.

Betterhumans is doing a good job of straddling the line between old style and new style online media; they're effectively the online face of moderate transhumanism, a news and opinions venture with quite a respectable readership. But the reality of online publishing, as Simon points out, is that it's a place for those who love to do it - not for those who want to make money.

The healthy life extension community has a strong voice; many good writers are blogging and speaking out because they want to, not because they're chasing dollars. If Betterhumans can provide a silver-edge frame (and tens of thousands of page views) for the many folks who can write a silver-edged article (worthy of tens of thousands of page views), then more power to all involved.

So if you blog or write on the topic of healthy life extension, consider making a submission to Betterhumans every now and again. After all, the very worst that could happen is that ten thousand people will have a chance to listen to your point of view and critique your ideas.
