Confirmed Blog Collaborators for the #SciBlogReaders project

We are quickly moving forward on this project, and we have received confirmation from many science bloggers that they will be participating in this project! These bloggers have agreed to distribute our survey link to their blog readers, through notifications on their blogs, e-mail and/or social media. As more blogs/bloggers confirm, we will be adding them here!

The following blogs/bloggers will be included in our science blog readership survey. Their blog names will appear in a drop-down menu in our online survey. Survey participants will answer questions specific to these blogs as well as general questions about their perceptions of science/scientists, scientific knowledge, education/career, social media habits, etc.

About This Project

Who reads science blogs? Why do readers engage with science blogs, and what do they get out of the experience? These simple questions have surprisingly not been answered before! Blogs are an important component of many people's science information diets. It's time we understand readers' experiences with science blogs, and perhaps work to improve those experiences.

*New perk for backers - For a $150 pledge, I'll survey your own blog readers & report the data!

Blast off!
