Challenging The New York Times: Is FOXP2 really a "speech gene"? - David Shenk - http://correspondents.theatlantic.com/david_s...
Interesting debate on the interaction between science, journalism and the public. To me, this underlines the need to render expert-reviewed encyclopedic knowledge accessible (both technically and intellectually) to the public. - Daniel Mietchen from Bookmarklet
@DarwinTunes - great idea! just did some ratings.
Welcome to DarwinTunes | DarwinTunes - http://darwintunes.org/welcome...
"In the first instance DarwinTunes does three things. It stores a lot of computer-generated songs on a server, presents the songs to the world via a web interface, and allows people to listen to and rate them. So far this sounds rather like the online music services on offer today – but there is an important difference. Whereas the songs on Last.fm, Pandora, Spotify, etc are made by singers, songwriters and bands, DarwinTunes makes its own songs, and the songs get better through time." - Daniel Mietchen from Bookmarklet
One Percent - Creating a New Generation of Philanthropists - http://www.onepercentfoundation.org/
"The One Percent Foundation is a non-profit organization committed to engaging young adults in philanthropy. The Foundation is a giving circle – a group of young adults who pool their funds and time to strengthen their communities, while at the same time increasing their understanding of and participation in philanthropy. Partners in the One Percent Foundation pledge to donate at least one percent of their income to philanthropy each year." - Daniel Mietchen from Bookmarklet

Survey of Survey Tools - OSU Web Accessibility Center - http://wac.osu.edu/worksho...
"This document presents an overview of a number of popular tools for conducting surveys online. We have no hard statistics on which of these tools are currently being used at OSU. We have either taken surveys delivered by OSU entities via one of these tools or have been contacted by web administrators who have used or currently deploy the tool within their department or unit. At the end of this document we mention a few other tools we came across in our research." - Daniel Mietchen from Bookmarklet
Technology Innovation Program Seeks Comments on Potential Future Funding Areas - http://www.newswise.com/article...
"The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is asking for public comment on four white papers that outline potential areas for research funding grants under the Institute’s Technology Innovation Program (TIP). The papers outline national needs for new and improved technologies in the areas of monitoring and repair of the civil infrastructure, manufacturing technologies for advanced materials, enabling technologies for an electric power “smart grid,” and technologies for health care based on proteomics, data analysis and biomanufacturing." - Daniel Mietchen from Bookmarklet

@ommachi sorry but the victim ant was tethered such that its helpers ultimately couldn't help - guess who did that - yes, scientists: http://www.plosone.org/article... . - Daniel Mietchen
No mention of friendfeed, so what about writing a correspondence piece on this? It could be based on http://ff4s-paper.wikidot.com/start and perhaps also put the recent NIH grant for a "Facebook for Scientists" ( http://ff.im/beKk7 ) in perspective by providing an overview over existing tools along these lines and why they are not widely used. - Daniel Mietchen
http://www.cell.com/authors... / Correspondence: "The Correspondence format provides our readers with the opportunity to respond to an article in Cell—either a research article or Leading Edge article—that has been published within the last 2 months. Correspondence should be no more than 900 words in length with up to five references and should be of interest to the broad... more... - Daniel Mietchen
Now that sounds like a good idea! I'm all for it - especially mention the gazillion "facbook for scientists" already out there. - Björn Brembs
I gave it a start at http://etherpad.com/Microbl... - feel free to join in! - Daniel Mietchen
Added some stuff... - Björn Brembs
333 words so far, and once the generic FF description and some highlights from the spreadsheet are in, we will be near the limit. So probably no time to dwell on fb4sci, though I would still like to mention the NIH grant in the hope that those people will build on the ideas we lay out. - Daniel Mietchen
Maybe steer away from a "but we want to talk about friendfeed" towards more "there is a much richer set of tools out there...and here is a good example..."? Might mean the Fb4Sci stuff can get squeezed in? - Cameron Neylon
I would actually prefer the Fb4Sci stuff in there, and the article would be more balanced if we were to name a few more services that offer microblogging (I listed some in the Organization part of the document). FF can then be described in two sentences as a particularly useful example because it provides hierarchies of threaded conversations in which the most current and the most popular entries compete for the top of attention. - Daniel Mietchen
