Best of January

I wrote 134 posts in January. Unsurprisingly, a lot of that had to do with ScienceOnline (but there was other fun stuff as well, including some cool videos, images, etc.).

I went to see a talk about Ecology, conservation, and restoration of oyster reefs in North Carolina and wrote a post about it.

At the beginning of the month I announced the PLoS ONE Blog Pick Of The Month and later introduced the 3-D articles in PLoS ONE.

We also announced the posts that will be published in The Open Laboratory 2009!

In preperation for ScienceOnline2010, I wrote several posts breaking down the Program by themes and topics, e.g., Journalism at ScienceOnline2010, Civility and/or Politeness at ScienceOnline2010, Workshops at ScienceOnline2010, ScienceOnline2010 - evening events (and wild nights afterward), ScienceOnline2010 - Friday Tours, Art and Visual Representation at ScienceOnline2010, When Online and Offline collide (or collude) - at ScienceOnline2010, ScienceOnline2010 - what to do while there, what to do if you are not there but are interested?, Education and Outreach at ScienceOnline2010, Doing Science at ScienceOnline2010 - data, search, publishing and putting it all together, The Weather at ScienceOnline2010, ScienceOnline2010 iPhone app and Medicine at ScienceOnline2010.

After the conference was over, apart from posting a lot of videos made by participants with Flip cameras, I also asked you to give us feedback about your experience, wrote my own summary of the event - Making it real: People and Books and Web and Science at ScienceOnline2010, showed you how it all officially ends, thanked everyone who helped this event be biggest and best yet and kept updating the Blog/Media Coverage of ScienceOnline2010.

In the aftermath, I checked out the loot I got - Eureka, American Scientist and Phlogiston.

I did a Math 2.0 Webinar and an event on Twitter prompted me to post Hints on how (science) journalism may be working these days....

I am collecting all the blog and media coverage on this wiki page, but redundancy is always a good idea in the digital realm, so the links are also now posted here, under the fold: Update: the wiki page has reached its limit of number of links per page, so I am only updating this post from now on…
The complete list of blog/media coverage of ScienceOnline2010 is becoming huge (and also swiftly falling down and off the page), but I wanted to put up on top just a choice of blog posts that completely or partially cover the 'journalism and media track' of session at the meeting, as I found them…
I posted 126 times in February. The Biggest Event of the month, of course, was the release of The Open Laboratory 2009, the fourth annual anthology of best writing on science blogs. And the first book review came out shortly after. The Second Biggest Event of the month? It involves Science! I…
As this blog is getting close to having 10,000 posts, and my Archives/Categories are getting unweildy (and pretty useless), I need to get some of the collections of useful posts together, mainly to make it easier for myself to find them. I did that by collecting my best Biology posts a couple of…
