What I heard him say is that ResearchBlogging 2.0 or version 2 or something was released. (he also mentioned Spanish language for ResearchBlogging and Brazillian blogs and like 10 other things really fast)

Don’t I know it!

Somehow my readers can never quite make the distinction between a quick post from a conference and a more thought-out post.

But if Adam said ResearchBlogging.org is only just now out of beta, he’s mistaken. Depending on what you consider “beta” to be, we’ve been out of beta since at least September 2008:

You’re right. I think there were actually two announcements there — one was the general availability (outside of a beta) of ResearchBlogging. The other was the availability of Research Blogging Connect, which allows publishers to put relevant blog posts on specific content. Thanks for clarifying. It’s always hairy blogging from a conference while trying to attend and do your day job!

Just to be clear, I think the launch Adam was talking about there was ResearchBlogging Connect, a separate service offered by Seed to connect posts on non-profit ResearchBlogging.org to their publishers. So publishers can connect readers of their journals to additional commentary about them on the Blogosphere.

ResearchBlogging.org is a non-profit organization that works in partnership with Seed to identify the best blog posts about peer-reviewed research online, and it has been available to the public since January of 2008.
