Who are our readers? That is the question we wanted to answer at the beginning of this year. Are you scientists, students, or interested laypeople? Where are you from? What do you like and what don’t you like? Is anybody out there? So last month we launched a survey to help us find out. Continue reading Reader Survey: Who reads Southern Fried Science? A big thanks to everyone who filled out the readers’ survey. We’ll pick and inform the winners tonight and have a full write-up of the survey results later this week.
So Go take the Readers’ Survey, it’ll only take five minutes of your time.
How can you win all this amazing swag? All you have to do is fill out our Readers’ Survey. One reader will be randomly selected from a pool of surveys with the most insightful, helpful, and funniest comments. That reader could be you! In addition, 2 readers will be randomly selected from all surveys to receive a new science or ocean conservation themed book from my personal library. We’re only collecting 250 surveys, which means your odds of winning big are orders of magnitude better than a weekend in Vegas.
Two lucky readers, chosen by random number generator from the pool of survey takers, will receive a copy of a new (published in the last 4 months) science book, chosen by the winners from my pile of unread books – it could be about cloning, disease, conservation, or any of a number of possible topics. One grand prize winner, chosen by random number generator from a pool of survey takers who have left insightful, helpful, or hilarious comments, will win a Southern Fried Science/Science Online Super Swag Bag, containing swag from three years of conferences and other events. Super Swag Bag will include, but is not limited to:
Usual contest rules apply: contestants must provide a valid e-mail address. If we don’t receive a reply a reply from you within 3 days we’ll hold a redrawing. People who “know” us are ineligible for the grand prize drawing (you know who you are, but if you’re on a first name basis with any of us, that probably includes you). |
