We have proposed a session at the European Geosciences Union conference (Vienna, April 2011) on "Collaborative environments and user-provided content", in collaboration with Bruce Wright (Met Office) and Paolo Diviacco (Trieste). The session description is:
"Increasingly, scientists and citizens are using the Web to contribute and interact with scientific data. This session will explore collaborative environments and social networks used by both professionals and citizens for exploring, discussing and contributing to the body of scientific knowledge and data. Such environments have great potential for enabling new collaborations to be formed and to extract more value from scientific data, but many technical and social challenges need to be faced."
Please submit abstracts and help us to make this an exciting session!

Here is an introductory video to the BlogMyData project. It will be shown in the e-Research South booth at the 2010 UK e-Science All Hands Meeting in Cardiff. (Note: there is no sound.)

BlogMyData is a virtual research environment (VRE) in which environmental scientists can visually and interactively explore large datasets, then create notes and annotations about the data. These notes can be discovered by colleagues, who can post their own comments, thereby generating discussion and new insight. BlogMyData is a JISC VRE Rapid Innovation project, combining the features of Reading’s Godiva2 website with Southampton’s LabTrove laboratory blogging system.

This is a 3-minute presentation introducing the BlogMyData project and was given at the JISC VRERI Kick-off event in London on 24th February 2010. Please ignore the strange face I appear to be pulling in the first frame, which is unfortunately what Vimeo seems to have chosen for the screenshot.
