Search tools. For the academics in the crowd, finally a place to "google" your name. It is Googel Scholar, a search of academic work on the Internet. According to Google, this web search tool sorts your results by relevance according to full text of the article, publication the article appeared in, and how often it has been cited in scholarly literature. Thus, it is like a version of Social Citation Index. The tool locates document references to print citations, too, so that your search can locate older (pre-Web) works and seminal articles which are cited by many in a field. (I was relieved to find at least some of my work on there.) Google Scholar
