Open Video Conference on Now
by Greg on Jun.19, 2009, under Science Life Alert
I am currently watching a live feed of the open video conference, and i am super jealous. As you may know, i am a supporter of the open movement, and this is a great moment to see how far the tech has come. Currently, i am capturing and netcasting forums and events at the NYU medical center, and i hope they adopt this far reaching vision of how video can be done online. Hat tip to stacey at slightlyoverexposed.com for letting me know about this! Science needs to see how that improving the speed of research lies in open access to information! I am going to embed the rest of the afternoon after the break. enjoy! (continue reading…)

Open Science: good for research, good for researchers?
by Greg on May.04, 2009, under Science Life
I really love the action that Columbia is taking when it comes to the idea of open science, creating transparency of thought and data in the science community because of viable technologies popping up everyday. The era of the FLV, podcast, low storage costs and youtube gives an opportunity to scientists to show everyone how they do their research. I went to this lecture a couple of months ago, and of course, Columbia made it available within days. I forgot to post it, but Jim reminded me today. It’s long, but it’s definitely something i think people in science should watch, because eventually, it will be the future of how science findings and techniques are taught, discussed and disseminated. It was also great to see scienceblogs’ Blog around the clock, and Public library of science writer, Bora Zivkovic there. The lecture is part of the scholarly communucation series at Columbia. The lecture is HERE.
