Who am I… A scientist, father, exercise nut, poet, participant in
the growing social network of online personae
By day I am a scientist/cheminformaticist
By night I am an author of blogs, wikis, scientific publications, book chapters and poetry
I am the ChemConnector, and many more personalities besides…

My signature is too long? Or is it?
My email signature looks like this:

Scientists are measured by…
Impact Citations Papers Patents Funding
and increasingly by “Alt-Metrics” – what you say, what you contribute, your data depositions, your code in repositories, your voice in the network, your activities on Facebook (be careful!)
![Page 7: Social networking tools as public representations of a scientist](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/554e86abb4c90573338b4771/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Social Networking in Science
Career-wise, NOT having a personal presence online is likely already a detriment
Establishing a public profile Getting on the record Collaborative Science Demonstrating a skill set Measured using alternative metrics Contributing to the public peer review process

Chemistry Social Networking
Methods of sharing MY science online include: Wikis or blogs Slideshare for presentations YouTube for videos Flickr, Wikimedia etc. for images ChemSpider for chemistry GoogleDocs for data Google Scholar Citations for citations Microsoft Academic Scholar for papers
![Page 11: Social networking tools as public representations of a scientist](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/554e86abb4c90573338b4771/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
YOU should be a brand…
If you are going forth into the social network I recommend a “brand name” that carries throughout the network
Search for your “brand name” across Google to see if its taken. If its gone…you’ll know quickly.
Choose a unique brand or be yourself, if you can BRAND: ChemSpiderman, ChemConnector YOURSELF: egonwillighagen, joergwegner

Avatar or Person?
It is best early on to choose either a photo of yourself, an image or an avatar that will label you in the social network. You might want multiple…
As you participate in the social network you will visually know people by their “graphic”
![Page 13: Social networking tools as public representations of a scientist](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/554e86abb4c90573338b4771/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Do you have a Wikipedia reputation?
Are you a notable scientist? That’s what it takes to establish a Wikipedia presence for yourself
DON’T write your own Wikipedia page! That is self-marketing. You may contribute but someone else should publish and police initially
Check the rules for notability on Wikipedia – it is policed very carefully
Most of you are still alive….

Are you in the Blogosphere yet?
A blog is your voice – communicate and engage with the community
Ask for help, share your skills, develop collaborations, develop your online reputation
Blogging, in general, is your most important voice in the social network.
DO it frequently, don’t be scared to commit to a position and be honest

Blogging Environment
Choose a blogging environment – do you want to host or do you want it hosted?
Check out Blogger from Google or set up a free account with WordPress.
This author uses Wordpress as ChemConnector
