This is, of course, the year we celebrate the bicentennial of Darwin's birth and the sesquicentennial of his publication of On the Origin of Species. Earlier this month I mentioned Nature's "Evolutionary Gems" -- 15 examples published over the last 10 years in Nature illustrating the breadth and power of evolutionary thinking. "Evolutionary Gems" is only one part of a much broader set of resources about evolution that are available this year.

Both Nature and Science have put together sites that gather a variety of resources related to evolution and Darwin. Nature's site, Darwin 200, includes links to a variety of resources both at Nature and elsewhere. It includes a link to the Darwin 200 consortium. Science's site, the Year of Darwin, includes a similar set of links and the Origins blog.
