Nature.com wins ‘Oscars of the Internet’

Nature Pub­lish­ing Group has won a “Webby” for the “Best Sci­ence Web­site” for 2008.

Besides search­ing access to all of their jour­nals, their web­site fea­tures the following: 

Through Nature.com, users can access news and fea­tures from Nature News and visit Nature­jobs, NPG’s careers infor­ma­tion and sci­ence recruit­ment web­site. NPG launched Con­notea, the doc­u­ment tag­ging and social book­mark­ing web site in 2003. Nature Net­work, NPG’s social net­work­ing ser­vice con­nects sci­en­tists at a global and local level. The suc­cess of the weekly Nature Pod­cast has led to the con­struc­tion of NPG’s own in-house pod­cast stu­dio. The site also hosts a num­ber of NPG blogs, the preprint ser­vice Nature Pre­ced­ings, and country-focussed por­tals such as Nature China and Nature India.”
