As I mentioned in my earlier post on open notebook science<\/a>, this open lab notebook is inspired by Carl Boettiger’s Open Notebook.<\/p>\n

Carl’s open notebook migrated from OpenWetWare, which DataONE also experimented with<\/a>, to WordPress<\/a>, and ultimately to Jekyll.<\/p>\n

Carl does some interesting things in which he uses Flickr to host images (which unfortunately I think is a violation of Flickr’s Terms of Service<\/a>, but hey it’s for science, right?), Github to host code (I don’t produce any code – at least not at the moment), Twitter to host online discussions, and most interestingly, Mendeley<\/a> to host a document library and show what he’s currently reading<\/a>. As an aside, I would be interested in where the “Figure Sharing” platform\u00a0http:\/\/figshare.com\/<\/a> could come into play in Open Notebook Science.<\/p>\n

My mendeley sophistication isn’t that great – although I use it on all of my research papers to collect and access pertinent journal articles and generate APA citations, I’ve had some problems. \u00a0In fact I am pretty sure I uploaded some documents to my personal Mendeley in a way that inadvertently suggested these were MY research papers.<\/p>\n

So, I eye Mendely with a certain skepticism – but I really admire what Carl is doing with his. \u00a0He is a member of a “Theoretical Ecology” group with 10 members, and also has Mendeley spit out his current reading list. \u00a0So, I can always keep up with Carl’s reading.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mendeley bills itself as an “Academic Social Network” and “the best way to manage your research.” Here’s my Mendeley page<\/a> – obviously needs some work. \u00a0I commented to my advisor that a researcher’s presence or absence on Mendeley or other professional social networks such as academia.edu might be indicative of commitment to or interest in Open Science. \u00a0Academia.edu<\/a> tagline is “Share Research” and offers connectivity to Facebook. \u00a0From my research tracking down CVs for a network analysis project, I can attest that there is fair representation of DataONE members on Mendeley, Academia.edu, and LinkedIn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is fascinating to hypothesize about what groups and demographics of researchers participate in what social networks, and I’m looking forward to actual data to quantify any potential trends.<\/p>\n

DataONE has a few individuals and groups that use Mendeley, as a quick search reveals <http:\/\/www.mendeley.com\/groups\/search\/?query=DataONE> \u00a0The Provenance Working Group has 7 members and 79 papers<\/a>. \u00a0There are some other members that I cannot quite discern, but notable public figures within DataONE have a presence there, including Bill Michener<\/a>, Rebecca Koskela<\/a>, and Bruce Wilson<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the course of my research, I inevitable find evidence or instructions on how to accomplish a task in related papers. \u00a0There are a few papers I know of that are related to complexity and science collaborations I would like to share right now as an example, but those links are buried in my e-mail somewhere.<\/p>\n

I will endeavor to correct that.<\/p>\n
