Science \textbf{Science is a creative, iterative
process.\\ process.}\\
With
Authorea Authorea, we wish to make it even more so.
This includes logging all the iterations as progress is made: modifications to code, experiments designed and run, analysis, and even the logical progressions that lead to conclusions. Imagine being able to follow along from data to implications to the deeper significance of an experiment and even an entire project. And imagine all the interesting and useful information and process in between... So many forks, so little time.
With research, it's not always clear what we should do or where we should go next. Dr. Uri Alon expertly discusses this phenomenon in \href{http://blog.ted.com/2013/06/13/scientific-research-and-improv-uri-alon-at-tedglobal-2013/}{his 2013 Ted Talk}. Having an open mind is critical, because most researchers are at least tangentially up against the unknown. \textbf{The unknown is where discovery happens because, simply put, almost anything can happen there.}
With IPython integrated in your articles, you can bring your readers along the same path you took through the unknown. They can certainly judge its validity (after all, scrutiny and skepticism are givens in science). But more importantly, by opening up your findings to a wider community, someone will come up with a slightly different (or \textit{very different}) way through the unknown. We will put up some interesting data sets, models, and IPython use cases over the next few
weeks. If you want to fork them, go for it. weeks, along with d3.js uses. If you have your own interesting data or models, drop us a comment and we'll get them up on the blog and subjected to the power of community effects.
If you haven't started playing around with IPython through Authorea, why not \href{https://www.authorea.com/signup}{start right now}?
