Two things I like blogging: 1. the turn-over of information; 2. the informal nature. There are\nmore .\nThe turn-over is optimized by commonly: 1. short blog items; 2. easily allows scanning tons of headlines; 3. often full of links if you want to know the details.
\n\nToday, my eye was caught by Sugammadex Buzz for Organon over at\nLamentations on Chemistry. The reason was Organon, which is just around the corner here.\nThey had news\nabout a new drug.
\n\nGetting to the second reason, I like the informal nature. Just to make sure I checked the press release, but it was really Gaussling that called\nSugammadex a molecular condom. This is funny for (at least) two reasons. First, it points\n(intentionally?) to the birth control drugs of Organon; second, it is right on with how the drug works.
