A change of focus

I've decided to change the focus of my blog this year, mainly because Zintl ions, fascinating as they are, are a bit of a niche topic. There just aren't enough developments in this area of Chemistry for me to be able to write about it regularly, as shown by the pathetic number of posts for 2012. I will therefore go back to basics a bit and start writing about the elements. I will aim to write one post about each element on a fairly regular basis. The advantage of this is that I shouldn't run out of things to write about for a long time! Plus maybe I'll be able to provide some fascinating but little-known facts about the elements! Maybe... I'll be starting with hydrogen very soon, so watch this space!
