Gawker Launches io9 Sci-Fi Blog

io9 is Gawker’s newest blog and it’s obsessed with the world(s) of science fiction. Site lead Annalee Newitz tells us what it’s all about:

Are you an unrepentant neophile? Do you sometimes think post-apocalyptic futures and alien invasions are pretty cool? Want to know what’s going to happen next to the climate, the shape of skyscrapers, the contents of your genome, or your favorite scifi TV show? Then come to io9.com.

Sounds fun. Incidentally, legions of customer service drones rising up to overthrow their corporate overlords would make for a good sci-fi scenario.
