I realize that networking and especially knowledge management is really important. Task lists are growing and time is just running away. I hope that the internet idea will allow me and others to share the things which can be shared to become more efficient in what we would like to do. You can name those internet things: hype, stupid, brilliant or funny. But one thing is for sure, such services will grow. Why? "The key for independence is a central service provider!".
Anyway, here are networking services I am using from time to time
- Blog MiningDrugs, JoergsWorld, Technorati, YouTube
I am not a big blogger, but I like it and will continue doing it. I splitted my blogs in a personal and a scientific part. For the categorization I use Technorati. I think I will not start creating video blogs at YouTube, but I really like this social and emotional side of the technical internet.
- Bookmarking del.ico.us
Quite nice, but a separation in business and private links would be appreciated. I do not want to share everything.
- Homepage JoergKurtWegner
My private homepage.
- Literature CiteULike
In general this idea is not bad, but in fact I prefer my private JabRef literature database in combination with my own LaTeX summaries. For general cross-linking and todo lists I use the MindManager mind mapping tool, especially because it allows to create Word reports and File-bundles from all linked files.
- Project JOELib (part of the Blue Obelisk group)
The open source project I started doing my Dissertation. Has not everybody at least one open source project ;-)
- Social XING, MySpace
This is ways better than trying to synchronize all business and private adress books, unfortunately the service does not allow private shared entries from users which do not want to subscribe. In other words I have still to maintain several adress books.
- Wiki JoergKurtWegner
I am a Wikipedian and proud of it, the cross-linking is just great! This is true knowledge management and might become more and more business relevant, too. At least that what I hope, since Wiki's might have the potential to be literature management, content management and mind mapping in one. - Chat and VoiceOverIP
I am of-course a big Skype fan and have everything in place, like skype-in and skype-out. Beside I have the standard ICQ, MSN, AIM, and Yahoo chat accounts using Trillian, but I prefer Skype. And I am quite fast in blocking users, because my time is limited to talk to everybody.
Skype joergkurtwegner
ICQ 277160861 - eMail me@joergkurtwegner.de, me@cheminformatics.eu
I hate spam and the only way to deal with it is having a web.de account by using multiple spam filters with white-lists. And anything else will be taken care of by my locally installed junk filtering system. If I am not answering your mails ... then just give me a call, since there is always a chance being filtered out. - GSM
Yes I have one, but I do not like it because it is so ridiculous expensive for calling people abroad. And we are talking about an internationally connecting world, not the friend next door.
