My AGU Ocean Sciences education talk is tomorrow! It’s called “Using Social Networking Tools for Low-Cost, High-Impact Outreach: The Scripps Environmental Accumulation of Plastic Expedition (SEAPLEX).” As a supplement to that talk, I am listing the resources mentioned in my talk so interested people can easily find them. After the talk I will post the slides as well. Here are my slides, with the tools below.
Low/no cost tools:
- Blog – hosted on WordPress.com
- Flickr
- Youtube playlist
- Interactive Google map
Science social networks:
- Carnival of the Blue
- Nature Blog Network
- Science Online 2010
- And as a bonus, Bora Zivkovic, the Online Community Manager for PLoS, is essentially the glue that holds a significant chunk of the science blogosphere together. Follow him to get a broad overview of Follow him on Twitter @boraz.

Hi! Thanks for your presentation. Do you have comparisons between your invest vs. impact in comparison to the Plastiki project?

No, we are happy that all of our efforts are leading to a better understanding of the garbage patch. For SEAPLEX, the ultimate goal is scientific knowledge that can inform policy.
