Hope to see you there. From jtotheizzoe:
I want to tell you about ScienceOnline2012 - the sixth annual conference exploring science on the Web.
Science needs your help. It is under attack from deniers - people who deny the facts and people who deny that it can be AWESOME. I, and many others, are working to change that.
ScienceOnline is an annual conference that brings together the best in science journalists, creators, researchers, artists, filmmakers and bloggers (and more!) to pave the way into the future. It’s an un-conference, and everyone who attends contributes.
I am a graduate student who runs this blog by himself, and I can’t thank everyone enough for the positive response I have gotten over the past year and a half of doing this. I am motivated by you every day. I want to go represent what we are doing on Tumblr (and across the web in general) at ScienceOnline. And after that, I hope to continue to bring the message anywhere I can (even your town).
So if anyone would like to help by contributing to travel costs and to support the growth of this effort, I have put up a PayPal link on my blog page. If you find joy in the science and want to help, however modest, thank you.
Science Ninjas Unite! Together we can change science. Oh, and if anyone else wants to come along, I’d love to see you in North Carolina at ScienceOnline 2012 :)
If you’re just here for the star pictures or the puppies or for my cool t-shirt, please disregard everything you have read.
