#sciout - for scientists looking to understand where the journalists are, also think about #AAASmtg #AGU & your scientific societies #scio13
#SciOut #Scio13 @Laelaps says that it's important for bloggers to use their own opinion, but also make it clear what's opinion vs. fact
#SciOut #Scio13 If you want journalists to find you, have a website. When you google @MiriamGoldste 's field, find her name and contact info
"Where are journalists hanging out & looking for experts?" "Twitter. Make yourself Google-able! Update your website! #sciout #scio13
