By using the social web to convey both scholarly and public attention of research outputs, altmetrics offer a much richer picture than traditional metrics based on exclusive citation database information.
ScienceStage is a global, science-oriented multimedia portal that specializes in online video streaming, which is used to support communication between scientists, scholars, researchers in industry, and professionals. It is also used by academics and students as a virtual educational tool. Video content ranges from conference recordings, to interviews, documentaries, webinars, and tutorials. ScienceStage, as its slogan suggests, also functions as a 'hub' by creating a meta-layer that enables the networking of both users (individuals and groups) and content (video, audio, and documents), which forms an integrated multimedia and social networking platform for scientists.
Labmeeting's mission is to help researchers work more efficiently. It offers researchers a web service to organize, collect, and share scientific papers.
Collaboration platform designed specifically for researchers in the science, technical and medical communities providing online bookmarking & reference management, groups, networking.
Kaggle is a web app for outsourcing statistical and analytics to data scientists who compete to produce solutions to the problems presented by users with their data. It's crowdsourcing for data analysis from computer science to economics to physics. Even NASA is using Kaggle.
