A list of largely overlapping profile pages
Estonian
Research Portal (ETIS) - inevitable for scientists in Estonia.
Mendeley
- a literature manager. Becomes dead slow with large amount (thousands) of
pdfs.
Google
Scholar - has some useful features, like automatically tracking citations
and suggesting literature to read based on the profile. Unfortunately, the
Googlebot is still pretty stupid. It constantly creates duplicates (even if
publications have DOI numbers) and adds wrong citations to papers (leading to
inflation of citation rates). For example, the number of citations to my thesis
is "slightly" too high, because it is also counting (some) later PhD
thesis published in Dissertationes Biologicae Universitatis Tartuensis
(all previous theses published there get simply listed at the end of every
thesis). Then again, Google Scholar lists far more journals than Web of Science which undercounts
citations.
ORCID - can turn out to be
useful if journals and institutions adopted these unique identifiers. Profile
data (publications etc.) could be updated and shared automatically with this
system, eliminating the need to update manually the profile pages listed above.
And something else, less redundant
