In April 2009 I wrote a blog post on how I became a skeptic. I followed that up with a list of skeptical resources that I found useful (and still find useful) in my (continuing) skeptical journey. Since such a list changes and grows over time, I thought it might be best if I gave it a page of its own.

These are some organizations whose websites you should explore:

• The James Randi Education Foundation (JREF)
• Australian Skeptics
• The New England Skeptical Society​

Blogs

Here are some good blogs to read:

• The multi-author Skepticblog
• Phil Plait’s Bad Astronomy blog
• The official SGU blog, The Rogue’s Gallery

• The Science-Based Medicine blog
• Michael Shermer’s Scientific American articles
• Ben Goldacre’s Bad Science blog
• PZ Myer’s Pharyngula blog

• Kylie Sturgess’ Token Skeptic blog 
• Rachael Dunlop’s The Skeptics’ Book of Pooh-Pooh
