Publisher to provide social spaces for researchers

I see Information Today is reporting that Elsevier are about to provide social spaces for researchers, “harnessing web 2.0 approaches for serious research applications”. Elsevier appear to be in an innovative mood at the moment following the recent launch of www.OncologySTAT.com. Of course the risk associated with pioneering here is a real one and we should expect a number of major entrants in this space in late 2008, but the PR initiative is with them for now.
