New Psychology and Cognitive Science Question and Answer Site: COGSCI.SE

There is now a new website for researchers to ask and answer questions on topics related to psychology and cognitive science. The site is cogsci.stackexchange.com. From the success of earlier released sites in the Stack Exchange network such as those on programming, statistics, and latex, the site for psychology and cognitive science has the potential be a great resource for researchers. I'm actively contributing on the site. So, if you are a researcher in psychology, I hope you'll check it out. The rest of this post sets out (a) a little history of Stack Exchange question and answer sites as they relate to psychology and statistics; (b) why I think this new site for psychology and cognitive science has so much potential; and (c) why, if you are a professional or student researcher in psychology, you might want to get involved.
