What's the plan for this? Is it an online class, similar to Coursera, or something else entirely?

- zekenie 14y agoSomething pretty different. We've got a few ideas/prototypes kicking around. We've noticed that all the q/a sites (even those for chemistry) suck. There's no way to draw structures, propose mechanisms. In fact, I've never seen a good way to put a mechanism online at all. Another part of the project will probably be an aggregator. You'll be able to look for all things "Diels-Alder." It would let you see youtube videos, questions, tutorials, all from other sites. Finally, for the more mature chemists, we're thinking of setting up a sort of "virtual journal club." We're still prototyping and brainstorming, and would love outside contribution!
