Blogger.com search is restricted

Google is removing extended search from its Blogger.com blogs. A blog’s search box used to return additional results from the sidebar blogroll and Web pages your blog had linked to. No more…

However, such capability might make a useful plug-in for WordPress. I couldn’t immediately find such a plugin in a quick search. Possibly it might hook into DuckDuckGo to provide the functionality?

Visualizing Citation Cartels

A new blog article on Visualizing Citation Cartels, using the data from an existing case…

“what is uniformly odd about these papers is that they cite their dataset as if each datapoint (paper) required a reference.”

Collaborative Librarianship has a quick survey article “Directory of Open Access Journals: A Bibliometric Study”, looking at the coverage of library and information science journals in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ)…

“It is interesting that no Russian language or languages used in the eastern regions of the former Soviet countries are represented in DOAJ.”

I did a quick DOAJ check. Subject Category: ‘Bibliography. Library science. Information resources’, then filtered by country of publication. The paper’s claim seems to be correct…

russia

Switching to ‘Journal Language: Russian’ has the same result. Perhaps it’s just that there are no Russia-based library journals publishing in open access?

Do we need a new suite of filters for picture research?

15 Thursday Sep 2016

Posted by David Haden in My general observations

≈ Leave a comment

I’m fairly good as an online picture researcher, but lately… ugh. Open Web picture research on certain historical topics is rapidly becoming nearly impossible, because search results get saturated by the websites of swivel-eyed loons and vast commercial robo-stores. I’d suggest we need some kind of Web browser filter to rid search results of “conspiracy theory crazies” and “commercial stores”, at least. Even a filter that just flags ‘known Photoshop fakes’ would be great, perhaps via some kind of pattern recognition.
