Recent ThoughtMesh press

Andrea Foster writes:

ThoughtMesh is a Web site that tags open-access scholarly papers with key words. Visitors can jump to passages in papers that contain those words. And they can see others' papers, throughout academe, tagged with the same words. A "cloud" of tagged words hovers above each paper.

Mr. Ippolito says the goal of ThoughtMesh is for scholars to get their work out quickly and identify others who might be able to help them in their research.

Gerry McKiernan of Scholarship 2.0, meanwhile, calls ThoughtMesh "a truly remarkable innovation."
