Next we recommended Pocket which is a useful place to store links to pages which you would like to read later.

This week our #resourceofthemonth is Pocket. This is a browser extension which allows you to save weblinks to read later. Sign up using an email address or Google account. It can also be installed on your devices so you can get maximum flexibility https://t.co/VezMXOHKdZ

In the third week we highlighted the Altmetric bookmarklet which quickly lets you see who is mentioning your work online.

This week our #resourceofthemonth is the altmetric bookmarklet. It is easily installed into Chrome, Firefox or Safari. It allows you to see the altmetrics relating to an article so you can quickly see online shares and mentions of an article.https://t.co/uCrINxcKy2
