From today F1000Research are waiving their article processing fee for papers documenting the development of bioinformatics software and tools:

"To encourage bioinformatics tool developers to try this new way of publishing, we are inviting the submission of software and web tool papers free of charge to F1000Research."

To help support and encourage the documentation of software development, we've collaborated with F1000Research to bring you an easy way to submit your article directly to F1000Research from the writeLaTeX editor

It's been a busy few months for the writeLaTeX team -- we've joined Bethnal Green Ventures, met a lot of interesting new people at events such as the hack4ac open science hackathon, and have launched two new types of account, for students and teachers.

In this post we present the full set of how-to videos we've recently produced, plus a round up of what you've been tweeting about writeLaTeX over the past few weeks!

Just started using @writelatex to preview minimal working examples from @StackExchange - things I wished I learned years ago!

This Saturday saw the Hack4ac event held in central London, aimed at "hacking academia better together".

Overleaf / WriteLaTeX founder John Lees-Miller worked on mining and analysing article data from the PLOS Search API and PeerJ at the hack4ac event.

We're delighted to announce that from the 1st of July 2013 we'll be joining forces with Bethnal Green Ventures and Nesta to further develop our cloud-based collaborative editing service.

We've seen writeLaTeX continue to grow significantly through the first half of 2013, and are excited to have this opportunity to work with Paul and the BGV team to build on what's been achieved so far to create an integrated cloud-based writing and editing service for scientific publishing.
