"In October 2011 I began a project to make all of my 26 articles published in refereed journals available via UCL’s Open Access Repository – “Discovery“. I decided that as well as putting them in the institutional repository, I would write a blog post about each research project, and tweet the papers for download. Would this affect how much my research was read, known, discussed, distributed?" Via Jenny Pesina No comment yet.

If it's good enough for Einstein, it's good enough for me.
"Today is the anniversary of Albert Einstein’s death in 1955. His passing was a huge loss, not just to physics but the entire academy. In the hours following his demise, photographer Ralph Morse managed to capture Einstein’s Princeton office, just as he’d left it.
It beautifully sums the man up: a remarkably untidy desk, stuffed bookshelves and, of course, a blackboard full of his high-minded mathematics." Via Anna Goldfeder

With the "world's largest" gathering of atheists this weekend in Washington, D.C., the National Post's graphics department takes a look at how the world's religions break down.
There is no escaping religion. It has enormous societal, cultural, political and historical implications.
It has been blamed for wars and praised for bringing people together. But it is practised in some form across the world by billions of people everyday.
So what are the world's major believing and non-believing constituencies? Richard Johnson - http://bit.ly/HYp9mz ; - coveys in this Infographic that these are estimates of the world religions based on the best data available. Via maxOz |

This is a video tutorial made by Ileane from http://basicblogtips.com whose blog is a gold mine for good advice on blogging.
We liked how she simply explained the community dimension of Scoop.it as well as some of the Scoop.it Pro features that she uses.
And we of course also love the fact Scoop.it seems to be her #2 referral source according to her Google Webmaster tools.
Thanks Ileane!

Robin Good: NotesCloud is a new curation service which allows you to collect, organize, and share any type of content you have into beautiful magazine-like layouts. “Imagine a tool that is always at hand when you stumble upon or dream up something interesting,” NotesCloud uses the metaphor of a multi-section notebook to organize snippets and notes. People can create their own hierarchies of notebooks, sections, and pages as they curate their topics. Unlike Pinterest or Evernote, NotesCloud’s structured storage metaphor encourages some organization, so it’s not just a “shoebox” full of random clippings." (Source: Venturebeat) Notescloud is equipped with a set of browser-based clipping tools for Chrome, Safari, and Firefox, that make it possible to easily grab and save any content you’re looking at online with just two clicks. The content curated and organized with NotesCloud can be accessed from tablets and smartphones as well as desktop browsers. Free to use.

San Francisco has a largely unknown place in the history of television. Back in 1927, on Green Street in the city, Philo Farnsworth had patented a method for showing moving pictures wirelessly. As a lone inventor, he was up against RCA, Westinghouse and Marconi. Each TV broadcaster at the time required a custom TV set to receive their signals. If you wanted to watch certain channels, you had to buy a set compatible with just those channels.
Skip forward ten years. Farnsworth prevailed in a decade-long legal battle with RCA but was never able to capitalize on his remarkable inventions (of which TV was just one of more than 300 patents issued). The broadcast signals were still incompatible. Reason prevailed finally in 1941 with the establishment of the NTSC standard, which harmonized all the broadcast formats at the time. NTSC was the foundation on which America's broadcasting industry and the behomoths of ABC, CBS, and NBC were built.
Today, with streaming media, we find ourselves back in 1927. There are three main adaptive segmented formats - Apple's HLS, Microsoft's Smooth Streaming and Adobe's Dynamic Streaming. They are 80% the same, yet 100% incompatible. To view HLS, you must have a player for that format. For HDS, another player and for SmoothHD, a third. This fractured delivery space forces encoders, delivery networks and client players to spread their development efforts across all these formats, forgoing optimizations that could be achieved by converging around a single format.
There is now a new streaming format on the block - MPEG-DASH. Not another format you moan - won't that make things worse? Perhaps not. DASH is different. Via Nicolas Weil

Fact checking has its origin in the early 20th century, when magazines began to verify statements made in non-fictional texts prior to publication. This practice increases credibility and trustworthiness of articles and documents. Via Beth Dichter

"Fact #1: You don't need to be a content producer to market with content. Fact #2: Not all curators work in museums and have elbow patches." Interesting analysis on the role curation can play in a content marketing strategy, coming from... a content creator. Sharon Hurley Hall is a professional copywriter & blogger who wrote this as a guest post on Unbounce's blog (and you can find her on Scoop.it here). While she makes a living creating content, she rightly shows how curation makes sense in a Marketing Strategy (which to me doesn't mean creation doesn't or that the two should be opposed when they actually complete one another as - I think - we both agreed in the comments).
