By clock on July 6, 2009. The series of interviews with some of the participants of the 2008 Science Blogging Conference was quite popular, so I decided to do the same thing again this year, posting interviews with some of the people who attended ScienceOnline'09 back in January. Today, I asked Miriam Goldstein of the Oyster's Garter blog to answer a few questions. Welcome to A Blog Around The Clock. Would you, please, tell my readers a little bit more about yourself? Who are you? What is your (scientific) background? I am a graduate student at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California. I write the ocean science blog the Oyster's Garter which has recently undergone a strange metamorphosis into a twice-weekly science column at the Slate spinoff Double X.
