I am science

Posted by Oana Sandu on February 5, 2012 · Leave a Comment

One day not long ago, my TweetDeck started flaring up with a new Twitter hashtag #IamScience, through which scientists all over the world shared their personal career experiences. The initiative came from one single person — science writer and marine biologist Kevin Zelnio and it’s a wonderful exemple of how you can create viral movements on Twitter.

Mindy Weisberger made a video from a selection of the tweets.
