Website
New Scientist has a Web site on which content is available. Access to blogs and limited news articles is available to anybody; users with free-of-charge registration have limited access to new content and can receive emailed New Scientist newsletters. Subscribers to the print edition have full access to all articles and the archive of past content. As of 2012 a Web 30-day access pass was available, at different prices in different countries (e.g., US$19.95 in the United States). The website also has special reports on many topics.
The magazine had a weekly podcast, SciPod, which was discontinued in October 2007.
In late 2004 NewScientist.com added a subdomain, "nomoresocks" (No More Socks), where visitors could search for, rate, and discuss innovative gifts. Use of the site had dropped considerably by June 2005, and it was since discontinued.
From mid-2006 some New Scientist content was made available to users of Newsvine, a community-driven social news website.
From mid-December 2009 to March 2010 non-subscribers could read up to seven articles per month.
In 2010 New Scientist started The S Word, a blog providing a forum for the discussion of "The science of politics – and vice versa". This was a part of an influential wider attempt to raise the profile of science in the general election of 2010 in the UK.
According to Technorati, NewScientist.com is the 14th in the list of most-linked-to news organisations and the only science and technology specialist in the top 100.
