Related to this, I have this idea for a while that, publishing a paper, could mean to appear as a submission to a Hacker News style forum, where the users are identified members of the scientific community.
It would allow a kind of public review process of the paper and it would float the more interested papers for the community to the "first page".

- slightwinder 6y agoInstead of a Forum, wouldn't a wiki, blog or other type of CMS make more sense? You still can add a comment and interlink-functionality. With a CMS even better, as you can comment directly to a paragraph or even sentence. Or do you mean the river of news-style, the frontpage, maybe also with upvotes, so people can better manage attention to papers?
