TV is already the dominant format for communicating science. In November 2006, the Pew Internet and American Life project based in Washington DC found that it is the general public’s number one portal for science information, with the internet a close second. However, with the rise of broadband internet connections, people are increasingly getting their video fix, and that means science communicators have to keep up. “We have to be looking pretty closely at online video as an outlet for the public understanding of science,” says Stewart Wills, online editor of the journal Science, based in Washington DC.
