Quoted in ABC Science

I’m quoted in Fran Malloy’s ABC Science article Internet connectivity about social networking and it’s effects on culture:

“A genuine science community is emerging online,” says science blogger Ryan Somma author of ‘ideonexus’. He argues that social networking also increases scientists’ accessibility to the public and accelerates the dissemination of new research.

This is a bit awkward, seeing as how I recently knocked on the ABC for hosting science quacks.
