My
name is Mike Jennings and I am an information technology leader at
OSTI. For several years I've been responsible for organizing OSTI
staff to capitalize the benefits of web and mobile web innovations. An
important endeavor of mine aspires to help OSTI become a leader in
connecting scientists in the second generation of the WorldWideWeb -
Web 2.0. Connecting scientists supports our director's vision of
Global Science Discovery (More on this vision later.) Web 2.0 has
enabled new types of media that are capable of accomplishing his ideals
for knowledge diffusion, increasing contact rates between scientists, and accelerating science. After
years of grassroots research I assembled OSTI's Web 2.0 Team to seed
new Web innovation and exchange Web 2 accomplishments. As we progress
in the coming months, I hope to incite my Teammates and others to share
more Web 2.0 accomplishments on the OSTIblog.
