[open-science] [okfn-discuss] IPCC report

[Daniel Lombraña González]

Hi,

In this case I would give it a try with DuckDuckGo as they have an
API,there are not low limits<https://duckduckgo.com/api>,
and you can do really interesting stuff :-)

More over, with the !bang solution we can even search directly in !mendeley
for example :-) Check this link <https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html>, scroll
down until you see Research.

Anyone with DuckDuckGo experience?

Cheers,

Danie
