Eric M. Johnson and I spent about 45 minutes discussing "evolutionary psychology beyond sex" last night, which you can see today on Bloggingheads "Science Saturday."
Or just watch it here:
jgoldman | September 23, 2010The time is upon us. As I wrote about earlier this week, it is Social Media Week in Los Angeles, and I'm participating, liveblogging (on this post! refresh for updates below the fold), and livetweeting, and streaming a session at USC called Biomimcry: Science and Social Media.
An incomplete list of additional participants (who may or may not be livetweeting and/or blogging):
Marc Cooper: @marc_cooper
Laura Nelson: @laura_nelson
Jessika Walsten: @JessikaWalsten
Lisa Rau: @LisaRau, Square Syndrome
Krishna Nayak: @krishusc
Raphael Rosen: @raphaelrosen22, Science Happenings

jgoldman | September 21, 2010We initially planned on doing these group blogcasts roughly once per month, but then, well, Pepsigate happened and blogs were moved, people were distracted, and so on. But the dust is finally starting to settle, so it was time for another. I should point out how awesome it is that this group blogcast spans three blog networks - Scienceblogs, Scientopia, and PLoS blogs - and is an example of the kind of collaboration the bloggers on the different networks can achieve!

jgoldman | June 14, 2010If you're a regular reader of Peter and Travis's blog, Obesity Panacea, you may have heard one of their semi-regular blogcasts. Well, since Peter is traveling the world (read about it here), Travis asked me to join him for a blogcast. While discussing topics that we could discuss, a sent a few links and papers his way, and he was like "ugh, self-report." And I was like, "dude, self-report makes the world go around."
Okay, so the conversation may not have gone exactly like that, but the outcome was we decided to go ahead and talk about the relative merits of self-report data in science.
As he…
