Medical Apps Daily : Paper.li your daily or weekly Newspaper based on Twitter & facebook

See it and subscribe

Medical Apps Daily


Paper.li  organizes links shared on Twitter and Facebook into an easy to read newspaper-style format.
This sounds like it combines twitter AND facebook news, but it doesn't. You can create Newspapers based on:

  • your twitteraccount The newspaper will be created using all the links (articles) shared in the past 24 hours(or within a week)  by yourself (editor in chief) AND the people you follow (contributors
  • a twitter tag
  • a twitter list
  •  on a search of all public posts on facebook
  • or a custom paper
    You can query Twitter with a more complex search term than just a #tag (e.g. find all the tweets that talk about climate AND carbon but NOT solar = climate carbon -solar).
    You can also restrict the Twitter users that can contribute content to the paper by specifying a Twitter list.
    They promise that more features are on the way...
    Medical Apps Daily is focussed on a twitter search:
     
    (medical OR medicine OR health OR e-health OR m-health) (app OR apps OR mobile OR iphone OR android OR iPad OR blackberry)


    I will tweak this search, but could use your help and advice. 
    So, If you have comments or suggestions for improvement of this quick & dirty search, please comment on this post, tweet to @digicmb or @medlibmob

I think it would be more helpful for others if you would add tutorials how it works.

Stefanie, WHAT you can do is in this post. There is really nothing more to it. Go to paper.li site; choose Create Newspaper, choose one of the formats you would like, and just try it! Only for the Custom Newspaper you can add a search query in Twitter.
What would you like to know more?

KOPERNIO extension to find PDF's : plus Open Access button, Unpaywall, Google Scholar and Connect UPDATED!

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). ...

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!).

11 Ways to calculate (your) H-Index : free and otherwise

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 ...
