- Biografía breve
- A longtime advocate of scientific skepticism and critical thinking, in 1994 Carroll set up the Skeptic's Dictionary website online. It initially consisted of fewer than fifty articles, mostly on informal fallacies and pseudoscience. The site has now grown to several hundred articles, including many on the paranormal and the supernatural. It attracts more than a million visitors per month. Entries from the dictionary have been translated into more than a dozen languages.
Carroll's views have attracted numerous interviews for him from mainstream media and local newspapers, such as the Davis Enterprise. In addition, he has been interviewed by representatives of groups promoting scientific skepticism, such as the New England Skeptical Society and Media Man Australia.
In January 2010 Carroll was elected as a Fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry.
On May 29, 2011, Carroll led a discussion concerning the "Five Myths About Skeptics" at the 2nd annual SkeptiCalCon event held in Berkeley, CA.
On March 27, 2012, Carroll began a regular segment on the podcast Skepticality entitled Unnatural Virtue.
