bbgm - the discussion: Spreading a meme

  • Pedro Beltrao · 3 years ago
    After a while the 2.0 gimmick becomes a bit too much. It is a very successful meme. Here is for example a podcast about Library 2.0
    I have been trying to say open science instead of science 2.0 to mean a more transparent scientific process and not just open access that refers to accessibility to the papers.

    It almost becomes negative, and I think in science, it's almost self defeating. I'll definitely check out the podcast later today. As you've probably noticed, I've been using open publishing/open access a lot more. Time to start talking about "open science" more as well. The key is to make people understand that open science is all about having an open dialogue and about sharing and not just because we need to, but because it actually helps develop the field.
