 Abstract

Abstract: Academic social networking allows you to connect with other

researchers in your field, share your publications and datasets, get

feedback on your non-peer-reviewed work, and to stay current with

news and events in your field of interest. It gives you another place to

establish your name and research and perhaps even collaborate with

others. The academic social networking, making your work more widely

discoverable and easily available. The two best known academic social

networking are ResearchGate and Academia.edu. These two networks

are offer roughly the same features. ResearchGate is more closely

focused on collaboration and interaction, while Academia.edu often

functions more as an academic version of LinkedIn, with an online CVand as a place to share your publications.
