ScienceOnlineAgain 2010

Happy news:

ScienceOnline2010, the fourth annual conference on science and the Web, will be held on January 15-17th, 2010 in the Research Triangle Park area (the exact location to be announced).

Please join us for this three-day event to explore science on the Web. Our goal is to bring together scientists, physicians, patients, educators, students, publishers, editors, bloggers, journalists, writers, web developers, programmers and others to discuss, demonstrate and debate online strategies and tools for doing science, publishing science, teaching science, and promoting the public understanding of science.

The '09 shindig was a fun experience, and I'd like to arrange my affairs so that I could return for the sequel. Last year, during the back-channel planning before the event, I floated the idea of a session on communicating mathematics over the Web (a topic I'm known to be a geek for). The idea was proposed too late to become anything last time, but the subject is still in style. Would anyone be interested in that sort of thing?

chase up the guys at Plus Magazine - www.plus.maths.org - they would very much be into something about communicating maths online - they are (probably, maybe) the biggest maths mag online, and also have a podcast. I'll also see what they are up too.

Yes, definitely! (more on the how to show/render/markup.. whatever than on communicating math - but either would be welcome.)

OK, I added a note about this topic to the Program Suggestions page. Additional comments are welcome.
