Sorry not much posting going on here lately as the start of the semester has me not only immersed in classes, but engaged in the political blogosphere for my undergrad class (more on that later).
Anyway, if you are a graduate student looking to connect your research to those outside your immediate institution, you should check out The Graduate Junction. The Graduate Junction provides opportunities to discover others in academia working on similar projects. Importantly the Graduate Junction is not limited to any particular disciplinary field, enabling cross disciplinary conversations, which are increasingly important in the age of Networked Knowledge.

I’ve tried this site out but I don’t seem to be having much success with it. I don’t see any action and it seems difficult to build bridges (purpose of SNS) Anyone else?
