The Doomsday Clock has been moved back a minute:

The concept timepiece, devised by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists now stands at six minutes to the hour.

The group said it made the decision to move the clock back because of a more “hopeful state of world affairs”.

Lawrence Krauss, co-chair of the BAS board of sponsors, warned scientists that there was still much to be done.

“We urge leaders to fulfill the promise of a nuclear weapon-free world and to act now to slow the pace of climate change,” he said.

“We are mindful of the fact that the clock is ticking,” he added.

Brian Ferguson of The Scotsman has written a really nice feature on my Burke & Hare graphic novel.

The book is on sale via Amazon.co.uk.

Google Docs now supports file storage and sharing (of just about any format, not just documents) up to 250MB.

“Larger than the attachment limit on most email applications, you’ll be able to backup large graphics files, RAW photos, ZIP archives and much more to the cloud. More importantly, instead of carrying a USB drive, you can now use Google Docs as a more convenient option for accessing your files on different computers.”

Tomorrow, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists announces the latest move of the minute hand on its famous Doomsday Clock.
