We can now use citations directly to evaluate people.<br /><br />I am less convinced about download statistics as a good indicator of research. And is some way, this blog give the opportunity to discuss papers. I wish more people were doing this.Economic Logicianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10171296292101248614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159906646513306121.post-80614322068222426062012-06-09T11:38:05.776-07:002012-06-09T11:38:05.776-07:00Love your blog!

You make a good point too. Who cares about journals when working papers are so accessible? Sadly the profession still seems to be love with them, perhaps because of the tenure system. We could use other metrics: citations, downloads. We could have cites where papers are rated and people could leave comments.<br /><br />Keep up the good work!

It just makes me wonder why you did not simply send them a friendly e-mail giving them some advice instead of bashing them on this blog while offering no further insights at all?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159906646513306121.post-17793041859868361092012-06-05T09:01:34.311-07:002012-06-05T09:01:34.311-07:00They seem to have a rather naive understanding of ...They seem to have a rather naive understanding of the publishing process.
