I'm trying to find good sources for new* scifi content. Google is being extremely unhelpful at finding blogs and I know there have to be a few out there. I'm really focused on games but at this point I would be interested in any writer who covers science fiction content.

Bonus points for any blog that focuses on aliens.

*by new I mean new to me, I dont care if it came out yesterday or 100 years ago

I don't know Bruce Sterling, so I read a few of the articles. Is it a scifi blog? It seems more like a general art and writer sort of thing? I might have not scrolled down far enough.

Starting from the 3rd post, most of them are full stories. But I haven't read everything, so I'm not sure how much of it is really scifi, although he's most known for his cyberpunk stories in the 80s and 90s.

Here you have one I posted previously: “Homo sapiens declared extinct” by Bruce Sterling (1999)

From his wikipedia page:

Michael Bruce Sterling (born April 14, 1954) is an American science fiction author known for his novels and short fiction and editorship of the Mirrorshades anthology. In particular, he is linked to the cyberpunk subgenre.

Sterling's first science-fiction story, Man-Made Self, was sold in 1976. He is the author of science-fiction novels, including Schismatrix (1985), Islands in the Net (1988), and Heavy Weather (1994). In 1992, he published his first non-fiction book, The Hacker Crackdown: Law and Disorder on the Electronic Frontier.[1]
