SciVee ( http://www.scivee.tv ) aims to help scientists create and share content on a
single internet portal, enabling worldwide exposure of publications and
encouraging researchers to assess their peers' work.

Brief News:

SciVeeexternal, a video-sharing site for scientists is set to be officially
launched on 1 September. Already online, it allows scientists to upload
their technical papers and a podcast videos in which authors explain
their papers' results.

Jointly operated by three US partnersexternal - the Public Library of Science (PLoS), the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) - "SciVee
is about the free and widespread dissemination and comprehension of
science," explains the portal. 'Created by scientist for scientists',
it also aims to facilitate the creation of science communities around
specific issues, articles and keywords and promises more
exposure for scientists' publications. 

The portal is not targeted at the general non-scientist audience
and attracting non-specialist viewers will depend
on scientists' ability to present their work in an understandable way.

With rapid advances in scientific research, the European Commission
has set bridging science and society as one of its priorities. Communicating science
- bridging scientists, policymakers and citizens - to foster
public engagement and build trust in scientific progress, was recently
qualified by the executive's own research advisory board as 'crucial'
for transforming more research into innovation.

The Commission also adopted a Communicationexternal in February 2007, proposing a series of EU-level measures to
support new ways of promoting better access to information online and
to preserve research results in digital format for future generations.

I will try to get in contact with this website and see if we can link each other once we are live and running.

Define what do you mean for video brochure and we can study on it ...as a dissemination tool for example.

Thanks

Do you think we can use this to promote Spidera........?

How can we use this medium to promote our platform?

Could we do some kind of video brochure or webcast, for instance...........?
