I would love to have this in an API format, and to replace the motivational quotes on Momentum with these little snippets of research.

@jcutrell @zmh - what are the odds of you throwing a little json plugin in there and opening this up, provided that wherever it gets used, it gets linked back to you?

@jcutrell Thanks Jonathan! RSS available now at http://studies.show/feed/, would need to do some work to expose API but definitely something I should add :)

Great idea. Is there any plan to help cross-check the summary and make sure they are accurate? I showed it to a Phd student and she's worried about it being too editorial and distorting the original purpose of the research.

@moyicat yeah that's a really great point, especially given I'm certainly not an expert on a lot of this stuff :) hopefully people read the full paper (or at least the abstract) to double check my perspective, but happy to correct any inaccuracies as well!

Love this! Making research accessible and digestible is awesome. @zmh - would love for this to have a twitter feed & weekly email digest.

Amazing! I LOL'ed at the heavy metal one earlier. Is this searchable / are there plans to make it searchable once there's enough content?

Already addicted. Great way for people to get useful enriching info in the digital age. Perfect for people like me who have a 2 second attention span.
