As Andrew from About:Geology just tweeted, geologists seem thin on the ground on the micro-blogging site Twitter.
I was aprehensive to join at first, but now I’m tweeting up a storm, as too are Dave from Geology News (even Geology News tweets), Brian from Clastic Detritus, Maria from Green Gabbro and Ron from Ron Schott’s Geology Home Companion Blog. So there’s a few of us out there.
In addition to us geobloggers, there’s the likes of The Bad Astronomer, Phil Plait, super biologist PZ Myers, Skeptic’s Guide’s Rebecca Watson, NASA’s Mars Rovers and the good old USGS. Plus many, many others.
So if you’re a geologist and you’re not twittering, give it a go. If you are a geotweeter and I’ve missed you out, let us all know below in the comments and we can be all atwitter about our precious rocks.

We have an office Twitter account @BoreholeGroup where we post updates about the work we do here at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory and on the scientific drillship JOIDES Resolution.
I also tweet myself but since we set up the BoreholeGroup account I tend to put most of my geology-related posts there.

I post on general geography at http://geographile.blogspot.com — not *frequently* but with some level of substance, gradually increasing now that my school and work loads are lighter. I post occasional related twitters at @geographile.

I’ve started twittering in the last week or so at http://twitter.com/hypocentre
Can’t say I really ‘get it’ though

I do what I can to keep it geo-oriented, but sometimes go astray (@drjerque). Also check out http://www.geofroth.blogspot.com
