The site I write for, THE ENVIRONMENTALIST, has just been granted international ‘org’ status by the organisation that oversees such things.
Apparently, we’re doing our bit for the public interest across the pond.

If you have a link to the .com site in your blogroll, please change it to:
http://www.the-environmentalis…
(and if you don’t, why?)
Sorry, but I’m feeling quite happy about this. It’s a bit different than just getting the .org extension. We’re been recognised as an org, which means we’ll be able to work with international organisations, research libraries, etc. The bad (but not too bad) news is that we lose all our stats and rankings and have to start over, although we have climbed already from #704 to #83 of top science blogs in the last hour (we were at #3 as a .com for a while).
That should, hopefully, be set to rights rather quickly, as it seems to read live hits.
Which is my way of saying: please visit, if only to push our stats. And same request as before, regarding our redesign, especially since our links may not be sticky. Feedback would be grand.
TA!

Here’s the new link of our .org designation. An example of how it’s helped: we’ve been asked to be a sponsor for the World Recycling Congress in Oct, along with TIME and CNBC.
It’s good to be an org.
