Earlier this month I took part in a workshop:The Influence and Impact of Web 2.0 on Various Applications, at the Edinburgh e-Science Institute (eSI) this event was part of a thematic programme looking at
The Influence and Impact of Web 2.0 on e-Research Infrastructure, Applications and Users.
Today I presented at the e-Science Institute in Edinburgh event "The Influence and Impact of Web 2.0 on Various Applications". Following that an attendee pointed me towards ICST (The Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering) http://icst.org and their MyBoard project http://icst.org/myboard/ which has some overlapping aims with LinkSphere.
The JSC funded Linksphere project has 2 strands:1. Producing a unified system for accessing the university's repositories;2. Developing a social network for researchers. The social network is now available to researchers from the University of Reading, if you want to give it a try you can access it from http://www.reading.ac.uk/linksphere/
