But why haven't others like this taken off?Andrew Treloarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569268781827809562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303975371294158246.post-57970897565984940472008-11-25T09:51:00.000+00:002008-11-25T09:51:00.000+00:00Yes, I was sorry to miss the later sessions, and I...Yes, I was sorry to miss the later sessions, and I'm glad to read that the discussion was wide-ranging.<BR/><BR/>The CLIC project didn't start its own journal, but worked with the Royal Society of Chemistry. Some of the features they experimented with back in the 1990s are being brought into production now in the RSC's Project Prospect. I couldn't see rotatable molecules on the RSC journals I looked at (although I suspect they are there), but there are plenty of examples at the eCrystals site at Southampton. For example, see http://ecrystals.chem.soton.ac.uk/605/, and if your browser support Java, you should be able to rotate the molecule holding your mouse button down. Try doing that on "paper"!Chris Rusbridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07426316331703324594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303975371294158246.post-45308668124214146652008-11-25T08:37:00.000+00:002008-11-25T08:37:00.000+00:00Some of these issues were fleshed out a little dur...Some of these issues were fleshed out a little during the panel session and the afternoon. I picked up on the point that our concern to preserve digital records wasn't always present when they existed on paper. Some of the discussion brought to mind your <A HREF="http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue46/rusbridge/" REL="nofollow">digital preservation fallacies paper</A>. And there was discussion around the need to break free from the confines of the traditional journal article format. Good point about PDF ejournal articles. I recallan eLib funded chemistry journal that tried to do something interesting in this area. CLIC?Simon Bainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06412839341273730388noreply@blogger.com
