Scientext is a new, on-line French and English corpus of scientific texts. The corpus includes 4.8 million running tokens in French, 13 million words of research articles in English (medicine and biology), and an English-language sub-corpus of French undergraduate students’ texts (1,1 million words). The corpus is organized to facilitate the linguistic study of authorial position and reasoning in scientific articles through phraseology and lexico-grammatical markers linked to causality.
myExperiment is a collaborative environment where scientists can safely publish their workflows and experiment plans, share them with groups and find those of others. Workflows, other digital objects and collections (called Packs) can now be swapped, sorted and searched like photos and videos on the Web. Unlike Facebook or MySpace, myExperiment fully understands the needs of the researcher. myExperiment makes it really easy for the next generation of scientists to contribute to a pool of scientific workflows, build communities and form relationships. It enables scientists to share, reuse and repurpose workflows and reduce time-to-experiment, share expertise and avoid reinvention.

Blogging ist kein wissenschaftliches Arbeiten, da es nicht auf der Methodik aufbaut, durch die ein sogenanntes "wissenschaftliches Arbeiten" gekennzeichnet ist.

But like the piles of printed articles on your desk, you can't keep up with all the new papers you download, and despite all your efforts it has become impossible to find that one article.
