BioMed Central will be hosting a new journal entitled "Source Code for Biology and Medicine". According to journal description:
Source Code for Biology and Medicine aims to publish source code for distribution and use in the public domain in order to advance biological and medical research. Through this dissemination, it may be possible to shorten the time required for solving certain computational problems for which there is limited source code availability or resources.

Over at my little blog, I've been musing on how articles about web technology are entering the mainstream media. Examples include a recent SMH story on mash-ups (warning: fairly awful) and in the Guardian technology blog, a small piece on Google Trends.

Google Trends is quite addictive and informative. Try "bioinformatics" as a query - the trend for the past 2 years is rather interesting.
