research.fm draft

[Fridolin Wild]

Dear new scientists,

here is the promised draft for a research.fm API:

http://www.stellarnet.eu/d/6/3/ResearchFM

Please look at it and especially help with:

* completing the method proposals for *other social media*

* please add a short (!) *description of how you*
*plan to use it* in your application to the
section requirements

Best,
Fridolin

Thanks, Fridolin, for setting this up!

To put a little bit more context around this:

- We discussed the development of the research.fm services today. Recording is available at
http://fm.ea-tel.eu/fm/d82b18-22120.

- We agreed to collect the requirements of tool developers by 9 July.
- More: Gonzalo
- ScienceTable: Bram
- FlashMeeting: Fridolin
- Pub database: Fridolin
- Pub widget: Peter Kraker
- Trends widget: Peter Kraker
-> half a page to one page per tool
-> editor for this wiki: Fridolin

- We agreed to define the specification of the services by 14 July and discuss the results on Thursday 15 July at 12h00 Brussels time.
- We'll take some inspiration from last.fm, mendeley and others.
- Flashmeeting: http://fm.ea-tel.eu/fm/fb1715-22179
-> editor for this wiki: Gonzalo

- We agreed to do a stubs implementation, returning fake results in the week after and to do a real implementation in the weeks thereafter.

- We had quite a bit of discussion about whether we want to develop one single target for these services, or a distributed network. Likewise: do we want to rely on harvesting for replicating relevant data between research.fm sites? Basically, some exploratory tools need only one step at a time and can work on an API; some other tools need most all data immediately and would need mostly a dump or additional API calls? We will revisit this issue next time.

The basic intent is to make good progress on this during the Summer: your contributions and comments are warmly welcomed ;-)

Kind regards,

Hi all,

sorry I will not be able to attend today BUT will provide the requirements and possible applications of Artefact-Actor-Networks on research.fm today (hopefully before the FM).

Best
