Something looks different with Google Scholar. I had a quizzical frown when I made a search on Google Scholar. Along with the usual result hits was a "related articles" feature which look surprisingly similar to PubMed's. While its citation analysis feature matched Web of Science's, Google Scholar had always lacked a function which allows searchers to find related articles.
But it's here now! And it's here to stay! The searching just got a little easier, and much more comprehensive. To read more, you go to Google's Blog for further analysis. http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/08/exploring-scholarly-neighborhood.html
And if you look closely, Google's blog has linked this posting. Amazingly, it only took a few hours for them to crawl it, too.

Hi Allan,
Have you decided when you are going to announce your health library persona? Is this the post?

Hi Dean,
I unfortunately signed up to the list serv late. So I haven't had a chance to realize that I am supposed to have a persona.
Will announce it very shortly.
Cheers,
Allan.
