    Some free protocols, but most are not/are available on a subscription basis, but http://www.springerprotocols.com/ could be a much suitable alternative. However, I'm sceptical that…

    Can you deal with Python? This is free and available on-line as just a regular static site. ( http://interactivepython.org/courselib/static/pythonds/index... ). From what I could t…

    You should consider listing the topics it helps you cover, I think it would be a great selling point and help convert visitors to buyers faster. I noticed one of the slides (not th…

    If I remember correctly Elsevier's rules, in case the article is from a subscription-based journal (non-open access) they retain copyright to the final published peer-reviewed & fo…

    I think it's possible it might've happened although I don't know a specific case. I have read about several instances of gamers having died as a result of prolonged sitting and dev…

    I don't know anyone personally that uses LinkedIn as a medium for establishing a friendship. People already have Facebook for that, or even Twitter, Tumblr, Google+ and so on. I ge…

    They're charging for convenience and the ability to download a tutorial in pdf format, it's not like user experience is sabotaged for everyone. Assuming they don't get enough reven…

    Wonderful, perfect timing. I've tried hard to stay away from Bootstrap for various reasons, but I really need to use it for a project I'm working on currently. Can someone more fam…
