- Valutata 2 su 5di IgotaBONGO, 6 anni faWell, be honest... We all think that research, most likely paid for by research(ers) institutions, should be available to research(ers) institutions. And yes, I too signed over my copyright in the past, and was forced to pay for my own publications. Decades ago nobody gave it a second thought. Nowadays that changes luckily. Albeit slowly. So with that in mind, I love the idea behind this addon. But I removed it again. It doesn't function without javascript, which is a PITA. Even before reviewing the fact discussed here that it changes page code... So, as somebody else here already mentioned, perhaps better to search whereisscihubnow...
- Valutata 2 su 5di Utente Firefox 13958296, 7 anni faTL;DR:
Implement the best possible interface, regardless of lazy users' concerns, then create an easy version for them. Or at least make a second version that follows best-practices. Somewhat redundant program, otherwise. But great idea, and there's certainly something to be said for the fact that you've pursued the idea to this extent.
Full comment:
Echoing the sentiments of another reviewer, and the respective reply from dev...
"Best-practices" in mind, it's too bad that they're being sullied in favour of unskilled-user-friendliness. Kind of ends up being user-unfriendly for those who would use in a more 'serious'/efficient capacity...
My opinion, for what it's worth, is that best-practices ought to be pursued foremost, otherwise the tool becomes an interface nightmare for those who want to use it efficiently and thoughtfully. You'd end up with a better product and that's the best scenario for a creator. A lite version is perfectly reasonable once that's taken care of.
I appreciate what you've done, though, and understand where you're coming from. It's a fantastic idea, but problematic roll-out philosophy for me. Ends up being a bit of another time-consuming hoop to jump through which sort of defeats the purpose for those who are capable, yet looking to streamline the search and organization process. - Valutata 2 su 5di Utente Firefox 13766506, 7 anni faIt worked for the first article, but it just doesn't load for any other pages. For reference, I am looking at IEEE's website. I will edit if I get it to work, or if an update fixes it.
- Valutata 2 su 5di caesar, 7 anni faThis addon inserts a 'badge' into the webpage when it finds an article, rather than using its toolbar icon.
This is problematic because addons should not modify webpage content unnecessarily. It makes it hard to distinguish between browser chrome and webpage content, which can make phishing easier.
Additionally, though the addon does have a toolbar icon, it does not provide access to the discovered articles and so is useless and simply wastes screen real-estate.
If these issues were fixed this would be a 5-star review!Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 7 anni faThanks for your feedback, Caesar. You're right, there are certainly downsides to injecting the button directly into the page content. That said, a lot of our users are not very technically experienced, and we found in testing that they found the button much easier to find and use when it was directly on the page they were reading. We talked about it a lot, and in the end we had to go with the real-world usability for our audience over the more abstract best-practice principles. - Valutata 2 su 5di Utente Firefox 12951249, 8 anni fa
