We believe open annotation is a unique new capability that has the potential to radically transform the way we engage with scientific content across the web. Not only annotations are central in the realization of the web of documents by facilitating the formalization and discovery of relations across papers. Most importantly, annotations, we argue, are central in the empowerment of communities of practices by making content based conversations possible. In addition, the activity arising from such content based exploration allows for the definition of a novel alternative metric. As the annotation is specific to a part of the text, it allows for granular analysis of the paper; such metric tells us not just the number of tweets or LIKEs for a given document. It also allows us to identify the topics that are arising interest and how are these being discussed. The contribution is therefore twofold; on the one hand NanoTweets are a type of community based annotation, on the other, hand, NanoTweets are also delivering a granular metric rooted within the content of the document -simplifying content based business intelligence.

1. NanoTweets.com
Alexander Garcia, PhD
Similarly to the general Web, specialized information will
demand specialized sharing and discovery tools in support
of social aspects for targeted communities.

2. Why?
•
•
•
•
Micro content analytics
Promoting specifics
Supporting conversations
Making efficient use of Social Networks, not just
Twitter
• Social Engagement
• Influencers, topics and persons
• Adding value to content and social participation

3. A simple example
• Users annotate with no limitations;
underneath, the tool does semantic
annotation, generates an URI per annotation,
the annotated text is trimmed and shared
over social networks. The entire annotation,
the corresponding social activity it generates,
the metadata for the publication, provenance,
etc. is RDFised and shared over a triplet store.

4. A new ALM
• Facebook, Tweeter,
Google+, Blogs, etc.
are about a URI as a
whole
• What is interesting in
the paper?
• What are the hot
topics within the
paper?
• Mostly available over
web based aggregators
• Nanotweets are
about specifics in the
document
• NanoTweets are
granular semantic
facts about specifics
within the paper
• The conversation is
the aggregator

5. ALMs in the News
• ALMs have been in
the news for quite
a long time

6. ALM as a simple aggregator issue

7. ALM as a simple aggregator issue

8. ALM as a simple aggregator issue

9. NanoTweets complementing ALMs
• Nanopublications + tweeter within scholarly
communication
• Specifics in the paper
• Topic analysis

Moreover, the present results provide
clear evidence that at least some PM
tasks do not place such heavy
demands on effortful or executive
processes as has been presumed and
are thus not subject to
disproportionate age-related decline.
EBPM tasks that imposed lowstrategic demands according to
McDaniel and Einstein’s (2000)
multiprocess framework were
associated with significantly smaller
age effects than EBPM tasks that
imposed relatively highstrategic
demands.

It has recently been reported that patients who were administered
hyperthermic IP chemotherapy (DOX in combination with cisplatin )
following surgical debulking of peritoneal MMs had an increased 5
year survival rate of 29-63% .

17. So…
• Allows us to discover hot trends based on micro
content
• Retarget, we know true interests from the
community
• Continuous generation of nanopublications
• Solves nanopublication entry curve
• Allows us to make a different use of social
networks
• Consistent User Experience
• Traceable across formats –PDF, ePUB, HTML
