the future of the scientific paper and more on open web science

Timo Hannay has an interesting presentation The Scientific Paper of the Future (9.2 MB PDF), from the Microsoft eScience Workshop at JHU.

The idea of the journal article as a window or an interface to data is a very interesting one, I'm reminded of Leigh Dodds' presentation on The Scientific Paper as Palimpsest.

Via Nascent, the Berkman Luncheon Series, and MediaBerkman blog I also find pointers to PowerPoint (23 MB - unfortunately many images don't show up in Windows PowerPoint 2000), audio (MP3) and video of Timo giving a presentation on What the Web Means for Science.

This in turn leads me to a presentation by Dan Burk on Open Source Strategies for Science.
