How can academia kick its addiction to the impact factor? http://blog.scienceopen.com/2016/04/how-can-academia-kick-its-addiction-to-the-impact-factor/ … via @Science_Open
like does my preprint with a 80+ score make it better science than a preprint with 1 score? does it matter? etc

-
should my cover letter big this up and if so who is RTing and is it good just less flawed or something else
-
I am aware they are measuring different things but their use could be identical: to indicate better papers/sci
-
I guess it boils down to is social media attention a good/better cue or just rigged differently or someth else?

Nope, it doesn't. Altmetrics shouldn't be a replacement, simply a compliment employed within the right context
-
how can you/we stop publishers from using it as a replacement?
-
you used the phrase "measure success" that seems like a synonym to "better" in your slides... I'd appreciate
-
a blog post from you/anybody to see these ideas laid out!
