What else could be done with a system like this?

• it would be very easy to stay up-to-date with current scientific progress – new publications on a subject would just appear in your inbox
• there would finally be a single place that would be the source of all your inquiries – your RSS feed reader! User’s choice!
• since RSS feeds can contain quite a bunch of meta data it would be very easy to integrate your reference manager – just point and click and save the abstract plus reference info, directly from the feed reader.
• integrate the system with social reference managers like citeUlike or connotea – making those social networks and meta information much more valuable as well as accessible.

But then Ⅰ just realize this may not ever going to happen – too many publishers are probably afraid of sharing that much freely; the service would probably be even interesting to scientists if it was not for free, if academic discounts are available.

Why not just post your blog entries to a category called „lazyweb“ or include technorati tag „lazyweb“? (You could also trackback to lazyweb.org, but… that defeats my point, if there is one.). This would

1. reduce the number of „empty“ requests to Ben’s site – which are annoying but only slightly.
2. It may increase visibility as there are many more people in the know about technorati.
3. It gives people the chance to post to lazyweb through many different mechanisms, blogs, flickr, furl, del.icio.us …

Basically it would replicate most of what Ben already has – you see a list of posts/questions, see a link to the original post. What you lose is the ability to comment on a question directly on „the lazyweb“ – but then Ⅰ am not so sure if anyone ever used this? (It would be quite useful if Ben’s lazyweb-comment system would trackback back to the original poster’s site, too..)

Ah, just wondering. Actually there is no need for people posting to the web to change much, just add that technorati tag and/or the category.

But what needs changing is the visibility to the blogosphere as well as an adopted reader behavior. Will we finally be able to get some forumness and usenet into blogs?

Argl.

Oh, can someone integrate this with the technorati tagging system? (or is it because it uses wordpress’s categories which are automatically used by technorati?)
