You know, many people ask me - why do I talk to science reporters so often. They ask this and then claim that science reporters are just all kinds of evil because they always get quotes and facts and concepts wrong. Well, that has really not been my experience. Sure, I have my examples of problems. But overall, I have been impressed and pleased more often than not. And here is a great example. I was interviewed a while back by Beryl Lieff Benderly about my somewhat obsessive experimentation with social media for communicating science. And then, of course, I forgot about it. So I was exceptionally pleased when I saw the story come out today: To tweet or not to tweet? | Science Careers. Beryl did a remarkably good job in capturing the essence of my thoughts about Tweeting, Blogging, social media, and science communication.
