It was a fascinating discussion with science writer Courtney Quirin – I shared my approaches and the ways I’ve chronicled the movement of people through keywords to my profile; she also suggested a few great ways to improve my interpretation of those numbers.* If you are considering sharing your research and want a great platform to connect with scholars in intersecting ways, academia.edu could be the right place for you.

*Allow me to clarify that I have not been asked to give any endorsement of the social networking site, nor am I receiving anything other than good tips from Courtney to increase my ability to analyze the numbers!
