Is scientific publishing about to be disrupted? es un excelente artículo de Michael Nielsen sobre blogging, periodismo y publicaciones científicas.
Scientific publishers should be terrified that some of the world’s best scientists, people at or near their research peak, people whose time is at a premium, are spending hundreds of hours each year creating original research content for their blogs, content that in many cases would be difficult or impossible to publish in a conventional journal. What we’re seeing here is a spectacular expansion in the range of the blog medium. By comparison, the journals are standing still.
Algunos de los bloggers que cita son:
- Terence Tao (Matemáticas)
- Carl Wieman (Ciencia y sociedad)
- Carl Zimmer (Divulgación científica)
- Richard Lipton (Algoritmos y computabilidad)
