CHED 21

Why should a chemist blog? Who reads a chemistry blog? The Culture of Chemistry blog explores the relationship between chemistry, chemists and everything else. The connections between science content blogs and science culture blogs will be explored using the Culture of Chemistry as a jumping off point. A case will be made for why chemists, academic and industrial, should write in both these spheres, and what students can learn from reading chemistry blogs.
