[Sigmet-officers] altmetrics session at asist?

[Jason Priem]

Have we talked about maybe doing an alternative metrics session for
jasist? I thought the iConference one went ok; would've benefited from
some rehearsal, but the idea was solid and the audience was really
engaged. With the recent Chronicle article, a PLoS ONE special
collection coming out soon, and Sloan's big grant to total-impact (an
altmetrics webapp) last week, it seems like this is an area with some
growing interest. Would be happy to take lead role, or support someone
else (Judit is awesome at this stuff :) Or wait till next year.
