Links ...

I want to start with the mystery link.

Michael Nielsen: The Future of Science: Building a Better Collective Memory. Money quote: "Unfortunately, science currently lacks the trust infrastructure and incentives necessary for such free, unrestricted trade of questions and ideas."

Phillip Davis: An Authorship Accelerator: Value of authorship in the age of 3000-author papers.

Female Science Professor: Which is better: thesis after papers, or papers after thesis? [Link via Guru]

    Good links. Given I will be visiting India soon and giving talks, that one was esp. more useful :).

    Also, regarding the 300 author paper, obligatory PhD comics link here.
