No! Not orgasmic! [There, that should bump up the hits]
You all know, of course, the inestimable Darren Naish and his wonderful blog Tetrapod Zoology. What? You don't? Go there immediately and come back when you've read it all, and the old site too.
[Fifteen days later]
So, I wanted to mention a similar blog, by a student working on spider systematics (way cool), name of Christopher Taylor, called Catalogue of Organisms. In this 300th anniversary of the first real such catelogue by Linnaeus, that's a way cool title. And of course you have an almost endless supply of cool material, even if you stick at high taxonomic levels. And he's being controversial too, with a shamelessly populist post on which dinosaurs are coolest or most ferocious (like those "Could Superman get Beat Up by Spiderman?" arguments nerds have, only with real beasties).

Thank you for your kind words.
Though I feel honour-bound to point out that I don't work on spiders, but harvestmen. There's whole worlds of arachnids beyond spiders ;-).
John - did I ever say how much I love your blog? :)
Chris, sorry. One eight legged beasty is pretty much the same as another to my untutored eyes.
Darren, not on your own blog, so far as I can recall ;-)
