Yes, I've been away, so this isn't exactly timely, but seeing as I previously drew your attention to a minor furore over citation indices, I should probably also link to the open source free alternative.

Declan Butler writes in detail about the SJR on the Nature website, although he forgets to actually link to it. Which is a bit suss, but hey.

And from this bit of news you may now calculate that I'm 20 days behind my reading (at least according to my RSS reader). Considering I was only away for 15 that's pretty good going. Ahem.

About the Rat

Black Knight is interested in the interaction of science (as a day job and as a way of thinking) with his family, the wider community and literature. And tormenting students. Frequently polemical, sometimes serious, and hopefully always entertaining more
