Major new features added today!

Well we promised you enhancements and new features and here they are. Some of the key changes you will notice straight away are:

1. A brand new logged-in homepage which has been redesigned to include a relevant dashboard of recent and related activity such as: ‘my bookmarks’ showing your recent activity in 2collab; ‘new bookmarks in my groups’ to easily see what others are sharing with you; and ‘new bookmarks in my research fields’ to show what bookmarks could be relevant to you in your subject areas.

We’ve also redesigned the non-logged in homepage too so that new visitors immediately see that 2collab is built specifically for researchers.

2. When you bookmark a scientific paper (either in 2collab directly or through the browser button you have installed) we can now use any information you have about that article such as title, DOI, or URL to try to retrieve and pre-populate the complete citation information, where available. This goes for any article and any publisher.

3. 2collab has started applying subject categories to all bookmarks (including existing ones), which means you can browse all available bookmarks by subject, add an area of interest to your profile to make it easier to find information and people in your field, and include subject categories in imports/exports.

4. You can now invite several people at one time to join a group instead of entering email addresses one-by-one; a convenient enhancement to the invitation feature.

5. Several great new video tutorials that cover a general overview, registering and logging in, browsing bookmarks, adding bookmarks, browsing and creating personal profiles, and joining and creating groups.

Thanks to everyone who has been in touch with comments and suggestions. Please continue to give us your feedback on how you (would like to) work with 2collab.
