the power of google alert searches for "Jonathan Eisen" --- although I keep getting info about another jonathan eisen - Jonathan Eisen

OT. I've never been a big fan of google alerts and as such, never used this service to date. Seems to have worked well though, in this instance. - Graham Steel

i have a bunch of automated google alerts; i have them set to email me at different frequencies; all of them are filtered to a folder I only look at once in a while so they are not intrusive; they are useful for picking some new posts about various things in addition to ego surfing - Jonathan Eisen

Thanks, Jonathan. Sounds like a good modus operandi. >> Great article. Only skimmed through it. Now going back to re-read. - Graham Steel

Thanks for the positive comments, folks, and thanks to all of you who helped. I'm going to be hanging out on FriendFeed tomorrow to discuss the story, science openness, and anything else you want to talk about. In particular, Steve suggested that we discuss some parallels between science and journalism -- scooping in particular. (A teaser: A recent experience with getting scooped made me wonder whether journalism could be done more openly!) I look forward to a fascinating conversation! - Chelsea Wald

Nice article Chelsea. - Andrew Lang
