Academia.edu | Home An attempt to map who’s doing what, where. C’mon Portsmouth, there’s only 7 of us listed, as does Southampton; but Plymouth has 54, and Edinburgh 58!
It’s not the fastest of websites, and adding your interests is a little slow. It’s good, in that there’s a list to choose from - thus reducing the chances of mis-spelling etc., however, not everything is in the list. Bizarrely, given the nature of the website, neither “Social Networking” nor “Web2.0″ feature… (Also - “University of Southampton” & “Southampton University” were listed - the latter didn’t have any departments or people. It let me delete it … will I get told off?)
