Abstract

Scholarly blogs and Microblogs such as Twitter are increasingly
attracting attention as new channels of science communication. Blogs and
microblogging services like Twitter get your research seen by more
non-academics than your peer reviewed papers will ever be. The
importance of this is not to be dismissed. Blogs and microblogs are
vital tools for academics to publicly communicate about research
developments and findings. Academics can also gain feedback from other
peers, as well as expand their networks and enhance research visibility.
This presentation will provide guidelines on blogs and microblogs as
tools for increasing the article visibility and citations. Increased
visibility online helps your offline recognition.
