what we think of as “social” in research
(from 33,000 feet)
(not in the social networking business)
social has been worked into (almost) every aspect of our
online interaction
science is changing(and the research workflow)

social for data
feedback, visibility, etc.
sharing informationstill hits most’s mental block
how we measure, incentivise
data capture(of a different sort)
the “social issue”best practices
behaviour roadblocksdiscipline / researcher specific
change in what we measure
paper’s still the currency
“scientific contribution” has moved beyond just the
paper
our metrics need to reflect that
