Scientific Researchers and Web 2.0: Social 'NotWorking'?

British Library and Nature Publishing Group Event next Wednesday (Sept. 24)

September 16th, 2008 by Troy

The British Library and Nature Publishing Group are organizing a series of SL/RL events. The first one is next Wednesday, September 24, at 10:00am SL Time (PDT).

TalkScience@bl.uk is a series of events hosted by the British Library, providing opportunities to inform, engage, debate and network with scientists and all those who use scientific information.

Wednesday 24 September 2008

• Is Web2.0 all about attitudes or technologies?
• What can Web2.0 do for your research?
• As a scientist, are there good reasons for getting involved beyond social ‘not working’?
• Web3.0: another buzzword or a semantic revolution for science on the web?
