The GBIF Secretariat launches a new social site to foster communication and collaboration in the Biodiversity Informatics Community
After a successful trial period that has involved more than 200 users from all over the world, the public version of the GBIF Community Site will be officially launched the 13th August 2010:
This site is a free online social platform for professional interaction within the scope of GBIF: collaborative projects, discussions, sharing of information and expertise, announcements, mentoring, etc.
The site is open to GBIF delegations, Nodes, technicians, biodiversity data publishers and users, and anyone interested in biodiversity informatics.
Visit the site now, create your account and start networking! Invite your colleagues and contacts to also join the site and benefit from the collaboration tools available in the site: work groups, (micro)blogs, community news, online chat, file and image sharing and much more!
You can also check the site's quick guide for an overview of its features!
NOTE: The site interface is available in English, Spanish and French.
