- Description
- Like many other academics who have joined the digital age I have pages and uploads on Academia.edu, Researchgate, LinkedIn and a Google Scholar-aggregated thing (that seemed to trawl the net for my papers, do it for me and then invite me to view my own collection!). So, I get lots of email alerts telling me when someone has looked at my work and downloaded my papers. I appreciate this virtual community and enjoy participating in it, but the aspect of this that perplexes me is the need to ‘endorse’’ someone for their skills – a practice that seems to stem from LinkedIn’s businessmindedness aimed at youngsters trying to find a foothold on the career ladder. I don’t do endorsements unless the programme forces me to go through this step in order to do what I want to do on the site.
