Gimme some love

Posted on 01:39 by Unknown
Google Scholar Citations A lot of people are worried that Google Scholar isn't receiving enough love from Google. Clearly Google doesn't see Scholar as central to its global masterplan, but does the lack of activity imply that it's on the way out?

In this context, any development, even a little one like this one, has to be welcome. Google Scholar is my favourite bibliographic tool, bar none. I hope it doesn't go away.
