Hi there.
I am John Bond from Riverwinds Consulting and this is Publishing Defined.
Today I am going to discuss how academic social networking sites like ResearchGate and Academia.edu.
A social networking site is an online platform that is used to build social networks or create
connections with other people who share similar interests.
The look and function of each site will vary but generally they include a personal profile,
user generated content, and an ability to connect with others.
In research or academia, these are used for professional users to connect with people
who share the same professional interests.
The most important aspect of social networks for professional purposes are the ability
to disseminate information and the ability to reach likeminded contacts.
Two popular academic social networking sites are ResearchGate and Acamedia.edu.
Research Gate is a social networking site for scientists and researchers to share papers,
ask and answer questions, and find collaborators.
According to a study by Nature, it is the largest academic social network in terms of
active users and research shared with over 13 million active users.
People that wish to use the site need to have an email address at a recognized institution
or to be confirmed as a published researcher in order to sign up for an account.
Members of the site each have a user profile and can upload research output including papers,
data, negative results, patents, research proposals, presentations, and software source
code.
The New York Times described the site as a combination of Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
ResearchGate does not require peer review or fees.
Academia.edu is a social networking website for academics.
The platform can be used to share papers, monitor a work's impact, and follow the
research in a field.
The website allows its users to create a profile, upload their work, select areas of interests
and then browse the networks of people with similar interests.
Academia.edu has over 50 million registered users, but there is a question about how active
many of them are.
Academia.edu, FYI is a private company and not a .edu in the traditional sense.
Research Gate is also a private company.
Of course, there are other social networking sites such as Mendeley and others.
Each has a particular twist to their service or area of focus.
There are of course criticisms of these services including, most importantly, copyright violations,
but also unwanted emails or invitations, fake users, inactive accounts.
Any academic or researcher should sign up for these services and have a full, vibrant,
and up to date profile.
Well that's it.
I've released a new eBook called, "The Request for Proposal in Publishing: Managing
the RFP Process."
It is a short, focused guide to this essential business task that associations or societies
use to find potential publishing partners.

Moreno Bondi: a "unicum" between painting and sculpturing artwork - Duration: 2:49.
In this brief speech Moreno Bondi tells the mix up of painting and sculpting in his artwork.
My work is rooted in the quotes of classical art
that I break by using the Contemporary languages.
Joining the traditional oil painting and the marble sculpture
(that is: mashing up different techniques) is a way of the Contemporary era.
In my art pieces the marble sculpture is often the matrix of the theme and the outline of the artwork.
The idea blossoms in the marble and then spreads on the canvas and gets through the painting.
Let me say: these are my features and issues.
It is not easy at all balancing these two different materials and techniques.
Mostly because it is difficult to join the two-dimensional surface (the canvas) with the three-dimensional marble.
Furthermore my artistic language is ever developing.
Particularly the outlines of this exhibition
("Moreno Bondi. La luce e l'ombra di Caravaggio nel Contemporaneo")
want to tell the balance I found between painting and sculpture.
Maybe there are many marble sculptures,
but I wanted to impose this new concept
("original" idea, as Vittorio Sgarbi says).
It is also quite hard to join these two materials and techniques.
By a side,
the painting needs softness, firm hand and smooth brush strokes
(but also a lot of physical efforts when you made so gorgeous works as mine are).
On the other side
working a marble block wants power and strength.
The sculpture transforms your body
In fact, by sculpting your hands change, the harms get hard and the muscles grow.
Usually, these two techniques together are not reconcilable.
You'd better use a technique at once...
but this is my own challenge.
(applauses)
Sorry because of my emotion
and thanks for your nice words that make me more upset …
..but this exhibition has taken me one year and half of hard working.
In this long time there were no holidays, no Sundays, no weekends:
there were only 12 hours of painting and sculpting every day.
In fact, I work also the marble twelve hours a day
and -trust me – sculpting is very heavy and weary..."
