Academic Blogging: Promoting your Research on the Web

In a world of information overload, lightning fast news cycles, proliferating journals, declining traditional media outlets and short attention spans, how do we make sure our research has all the impact we want? How do we advance our agenda and create opportunities? How do we explain our research to the general public and get our peers' attention? We blog, of course!

Come to this session and see how others have used blogs to engage the public in their research agenda, explore new ideas and join a worldwide community of scholars in every field. At the end of the session, those that are interested will have the chance to set up their own blogs.
