UMCG Group & Radio created at Last.fm
After enjoying listening to Last.fm (THE social music channel/player) for a long time. I decided to try if my organisation is ready for some social software and " sharing".
After seeing the great example of Stockholm University with their Stockholm University Group Radio, I made the group University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) at http://www.last.fm/group/UMCG.
It's a free & open group, so if you want to join, please do!
Last.fm offers you unlimited music to listen to. Just enter the name of a band or artist you want to listen to .. et voila.
You will get detailed information about the music, and will be abled to listen to an unlimited range of tracks and groups that are simular or somehow connected to your entered band or track.
You can then rate the music and share it with others. That's the strenght of Last.fm. By joining the UMCG group, a special UMCG Radio channel is created based upon the tracks all members of that group have been listening to.
You can use Last.fm as a installed application on your computer & laptop or use it from the web.
Just create your own user account via " Sign In".
Add your favourite music, and listen to unexpected and new music.
To anticipate the enthusiastic library staff of the RUG, I created a BibliotheekRUG Group as well at: http://www.last.fm/group/BibliotheekRUG;-)

UPDATE: Clarivate Analytics Acquires Research Startup Kopernio to Accelerate Pace of Scientific Innovation I am currently testing 4 browser extensions in Chrome that can help me find the PDF i need. They seem to be popping up like dandelions in the fields ;-) (Please read my post on ALL possible options to get to a PDF: http://digicmb.blogspot.nl/2017/03/how-to-get-pdf-infographic.html ) Here is a first glance of what they do. For testing i used this article: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2016.10.008 (not free or open access) Kopernio (previously Canary Haz ( http://kopernio.com) Note this is a .com extension. This new company has been founded just 8 months ago. The Kopernio extension was released just in March 2017. Currently the Kopernio button is in alpha-testing and so far it seems free. The previous name appeared to be a tribute to the #ICANHAZPDF movement (requesting pdf's via Twitter with this hashtag). ...
Here a short overview of all new updates around the Journal apps we are supporting. Personally I am most excited about the anouncements of " docwise " making big steps to keep up with BrowZine & Read (Integration -"Open in"- with Dropbox, Evernote and more, save and email full text articles), but making a hug jump with unique features, like shareable Folders with docwise users ánd a RSS reader feature (boldly called Google Reader replacement!). Bring it on! BrowZine : just published the Android Version of their App to which the CMB UMCG now has a subscription. To be downloaded from Google Play Store or Amazon App Store the following publishers have been added Project MUSE Cambridge University Press American Marketing Association Academy of Management Royal Society of Chemistry Institute of Physics American Physical Society Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) American Geophysical Union International Society for Optics a...
I bumped into a blog post from ChemConnectorBlog about free tools to calculate your h-index. This was posted already in 2011 and I got curious if there would be more tools available right now. Here is a short summary of tools that can be used: (If I missed some, please let me know via Comments please!) The Central Medical Library advices to use Web of Science (ISI) to calculate your h-index. Within the UMCG this is still the generally accepted citation resource & tool. We help patrons setting up their ResearcherID and Google Scholar Citations. ResearcherID from Thomson Reuters offers Citation Metrics, including your h-index to be calculated from your publications. We calculate the h-index for patrons on request either via Web of Science (ISI) or via "Publish or Perish" This free software makes it possible for librarians (or patrons) to create the h-index for themselves or for others.(Note: risk of getting banned temporarily from Google Scholar ...
