Group discussions


When working in science, it is important to share thoughts and ideas with colleagues. In BibSonomy, you can discuss posts publicly, but also within groups.

When writing a comment on a post, you can restrict the comment's visibility for the group. To do so, click on "other" next to "visibility" and then choose the group's name. Your comment is now only visible for group members, even not for the owner of the entry (however, the average rating is always public).
This way, you can discuss relevant scientific publications within groups or recommend interesting articles to the group's members. To see which posts are discussed within a group, go to the group page and click on show posts recently discussed by members of <group name>.
