yeah, i think they were grandfathered in. very cool ideas, i hope they do well. their UI seems a bit overcomplicated, though.

www.scilink.com is the only other player i know of sorta in this space (and labmeeting, as mentioned). anything better out there?

Of the search engines listed, I think Scopus and Web of Science both compete in the area of linking papers together by citations, but I don't really use either.
