Re: [DIYbio] Electronic and other old fashioned lab notebooks in and out of formal settings

Hi folks,

Thanks for the continuing discussion on this. I participated in a seminar yesterday that was purporting the use of "Semantic Wikis", for electronic lab notebooks, and other types of data organization. It seemed quite promising, and indeed is not the "Microsoft" or typical solution.

I am still learning about the concept, but am sharing the link to the seminar recording, in case others might also find it insightful:

All the best,

OneNote is fine if your in the Microsoft Ghetto. I've used it. It's a fine product. all this drivel: "Version 2.hsjsgj can only read Version fdfj if you have MS 10.6 or 11 or eat oatmeal, or have the Norwegian version... or: paid for for the PAYED-or-locked-out-399 version", etc. Is somewhere between distressing and amusing. Or the sadness of watching people realise, very, very slowly a spreadsheet is no way to consolidate most machine readable complicated ideas.
 
I sort of visualise a DIY movement as a leading edge of a broader base of practices generally. However, this corresp. has made me visualise a specific dichotomy. Its "DIY" somewhat equated to "loner" as opposed to formal science without exception sizable groups ? Certainly the rubber hits the road on a notebook most when one of two things happen:

• Its lost.
• Its shared.

Leaving an embedded running program in Jupyter may be a slight distraction as opposed to a passive formula for the maker(s), but its pretty instructive. I am sure of ONE thing for sure in my humble, finite life: I would rather have; Anybody's place-mat doodles and notebooks rather then any formal publishing output for any idea, whatsoever. That applies to patents or 'papers', anything. So I am in the wow ! The notebook is magic camp.

Maybe I visualize DIYers as more like moonlighters; that there daily roles are sciencey, or students of it anyway ( same thing from a content-of- head perspective, almost ).
