If nothing else, George Church’s Personal Genome Project has spawned some blogging careers.
I loves me some Daily Scan.
This link actually points to my fellow PGPer, John Halamka, aka Participant #2, and his blog, wherein he reveals his experience in the PGP thus far. Apparently, he already has his SNP chip data…bastard. (Hello, George!) No, seriously, I love John and I love his RFID.

I work as an Assistant Professor in the Duke University Institute for Genome Sciences & Policy (although this site and its content are my own).
In 2007 I became the fourth subject in Harvard geneticist George Church's Personal Genome Project. As the PGP moves forward, I am chronicling the dawn of personal genomics, that is, people obtaining their genomic information for whatever reason(s) and figuring out what to do with it. I am interested in the relevant technologies and especially the attendant privacy and other ethical/legal/social issues.
This blog may also discuss some of my non-genome interests or, to paraphrase Dwight Yoakam, "Guitars, Cadillacs, hillbilly music, etc etc."
