Spin nematics are magnets with long-range tensor order in the absence of a sublattice magnetization; the formation of this novel spin state has been studied within the new quantum fluids perspective of magnetism. Here this recent work on spin nematics is reviewed, and experimental signatures and a candidate system are discussed.
