Dr. William Gunn has a new post announcing a contest to build an app that for Mendeley’s database. From the post:
We at Mendeley have now built the world’s largest open research catalog, containing over 70 million documents. This is no small feat, considering we’ve only been at it for about 2 years, and we couldn’t have done it without you (nearly a million of you!).

Hey, I’m the William to which you refer. Thanks for the mention. Just to add a few details, the contest is actually to limited to the data at Mendeley, in fact, we’re really hoping people will mash other open datasets with ours.
Now that you know I exist, perhaps we can dispense with the quotes around my name?
Yes, I have removed the quotation marks around your name.
