To Blog or Not to Blog? That is the Question
Jennifer Ouellette, Science Journalist in Residence, KITP

Blogging has moved far beyond the “personal diary” format, and now offers an exciting new opportunity for scientists to communicate and interact with a broader audience. This workshop will be an introduction to Science Blogging 101, providing an overview of the many different approaches that can be taken with this highly flexible format; discussion of the pros and cons of blogging; and tips on how to make the most of the blogging experience. We will set up an actual KITP blog during the session, and participants will be encouraged to post to the blog during their residence at KITP.
