  5. Great service overall! but integration with DataCite needs to improve, some gripes at the moment include missing metadata fields & out-of-date metadata records compared to source data at figshare.com site
  6. I think it's great and I hope people stop being old luddites who don't know how to use their computer.
  7. I use figshare primarily for work that I need long term archiving support (CLOCKSS) and cannot deposit in Dryad (because it is unpublished). The API also makes it the easiest robust place to share data.
  8. Keep it up
  9. keep up the great work!
  10. Not only sharing data, figshare should become the place to publish all forms of research. It is one of the most promising Open Science platforms around.
  11. Please integrate with github and other such repositories - a doi for a github repo snapshot for example would be very useful. Otherwise, keep up the good work!
  12. You need to give us access to real storage space and find a way of making us pay for it. Many disciplines need space to store large datasets (100s GF, TB).
