Yes that is where elife is going. Baby steps with latest trial but aiming for big steps. But we need to go there well. We need to direct attention to the correct papers. We need good and rich post pub evaluation.

If I have my way we will also Lobby funding agencies to fund journals directly. But that is a long road.

the problem isn't just the $10B that we waste on publisher profits (though that is a problem). It's the fact that the dissemination of results is delayed sometimes by years as a paper winds its way through the review process. We shouldn't rely on journals as gatekeepers

Ultimately, post-reviewers just rate (versions of) papers 1-10, where 9+ means “would accept in current form at Nature/Science”. Then, just filter your feed for 9+ reviews and you’re reading “Nature”. Eisen is working on it:https://asapbio.org/eisen-appraise

That's one system. But not the one i personally want. I want a "content aggregator" (editor) with judgment and taste. That is how Ben Lewin made Cell so successful in such a short time. I just dont want that selection process to interfere with dissemination. No gatekeepers!

Realistically, i can't even skim more than X (100?) abstracts per week. Papers can be some combination of interesting, important, or relevant. How do i identify those X abstracts, especially the ones outside my field? I want a curator with taste to whittle down my choices.

p.s., if I read using a chrome extension like http://hypothes.is , you can follow the “feed” of those I read (or annotate certain ways). Could have “friend X would like this” button in my chrome extension. Then editors/curators = colleagues u trust, maybe from other fields.
