How to do social media for researchers, a talk for Boston University

So I don’t think we talk enough about all things that we do here at ErrantScience. Over the last year we’ve gotten really good at doing projects with people and then quietly moving the work from a folder called ‘do this’ to one called ‘archive’. This struck me as a Read more…

Whether you’re a science communication professional, a scientist or simply a science-enthusiast, social media is one of the best places to go for your science fix.

Should all researchers be on social media?

Anniversary presents

Next week Errant Science turns 2!! Pretty exciting stuff, I know. What I’d love to do is take a bit of time to look back over the last 2 years and talk about how it developed, what it means to me, and how amazing it is to get this far. Read more…

Why you should follow RoCur accounts

Social media and science is not for everyone. I am a prolific user of Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram and Vine videos (also occasionally Facebook) and I post tons of content. When my experiments go wrong the very first thing I normally do is photograph it and post it to Twitter. I’m not Read more…
