Help generate the initial list of subtopics for v.2 of ResearchBlogging.org
June 25th, 2008 Administration 112 CommentsBelieve it or not, we’re still working hard on getting the next version of ResearchBlogging.org ready to go. I know this is taking a long time, but since we have a (semi) working system right now, we really want to get this right. It shouldn’t be too much longer. A few weeks ago we settled on a new list of major topics for the site. Just to remind you, here they are:
Anthropology
Astronomy
Biology
Chemistry
Clinical Research
Computer Science
Engineering
Geosciences
Health
Mathematics
Neuroscience
Philosophy
Physics
Psychology
Social Science
Research / Scholarship
Other
Now we’d like to generate the subtopics associated with each topic. Users will be allowed to generate their own custom subtopics as well, but we’d prefer for everyone to choose from a finite set of subtopics, so that the subtopics actually describe meaningful categories (and have more than one item in them!). With that in mind, below is a list of possible subtopics. Please use the comments to let us know if you think these are appropriate, and if you’d like to see additional subtopics or refine some of the existing ones.
