Finally a Good Use for Google Knol: Sharing Information About Flu Research

Connotea Imports 2012-07-31

Summary:

"Tthis is a great project. Knol is a good, easy to use platform for these kinds of publications and given that the articles are also archived on other servers, this project also doesn't rely on Google to keep Knol's servers running indefinitely. PLoS, being a non-profit, is also the right organization to give this project a try. Commercial publishers are still wary of the internet and while the open access movement has been gathering some support over the last few years, a lot of research in most scientific fields will still be hidden behind paywalls for a long time."
