Social network for intellectuals PlatoNick

Information society natural for humanity of the XXI century imposes special requirements to modern knowledge and its bearers. Practical usability of information becomes the most significant element of its value. In conditions of acceleration of social life, practical usability of data is directly connected with its novelty and urgency.

Generally affordable time for processing information shortens and therefore typical (banal) data becomes less efficient and cannot satisfy needs of the social progress. Today dissemination of generally accessible information published earlier can make a contribution to global development only in the sphere of education. But even in education adoption and the following applicability of knowledge in many respects depend on optimal (corresponding to the current level of development of collective consciousness) form of presentation of educational information.

Original reliable information with elements of up-to-date novelty and prospects of efficient practical applicability has exceptional significance for the modern society. Such information stimulates intellectual progress of the humanity and acts as a product demanded in the system of economic relations.

Therefore, modern reality predetermines the need for maximally efficient intellectual activity. This is manifested in wide rejection of any forms of plagiarism and in the demand for high-quality researches and conclusions, reflecting personal views of authors on new ways of assessment and solution of various modern problems. Establishing the PlatoNick project and offering persons concerned to take part in it we wanted to create an available instrument of intellectual communications and self-expression, focused on the development and assessment of innovations in various spheres of social life.

INTRODUCTION

PlatoNick is a unique combination of a social network and a mechanism of creative realization and open presentation of original ideas of its participants, urged to stimulate scientific and applied activity of persons thinking independently.

We think that social initiatives must be filled with sense and socially useful goals for the sake of development of humanity. The general vector of social progress is formed through combination of efficient processes and projects.

PlatoNick is not an ordinary social network, but an environment for communication of creative, rational, freedom-loving people, who like to express themselves, participate in analytical debates and get acquainted with the creativity of others. They value their leisure highly and do not want to spend their time on useless observation of other participants of the network.

So here you can spend your time with pleasure, richness, excitement and obvious benefit.

If you are active, creative, persistent and communicative within this project, the PlatoNick will surely help you to earn and develop your personal prominence in the international intellectual environment or in the scientific community and also acquire international recognition of scientific achievements, researches or author’s reports!

What is PlatoNick?

PlatoNick will be demanded by people able to present many useful things to others, but still being silent because of the absence of a place, time and stimulus for communications. It can be useful for authors of scientific and publicistic works or fiction searching for a reader. The website can be interesting

Target audience

Create, communicate and express yourselves!

Here you will be appreciated!

for researchers looking for new ideas, opponents and wide expertise of results of their studies. PlatoNick will give a chance to exchange experience and knowledge, find followers or supporters and get wide acknowledgement of original initiatives of authors. Our social network will also be interesting for those, whose grey and dull days need a light of creativity and aspiration: in PlatoNick such people will be able to find followers interesting and useful communications, creative self-expression in various forms.

Other functions of PlatoNick: informal unification and communication of scientists participating in the GISAP project; providing such persons with an opportunity to present their studies and ideas subject to open reviewing. Thus, members of the GISAP can acquire additional credits via PlatoNick (credits can be summed up with those achieved in the GISAP and converted into scientific degrees and titles of the IASHE).

Blog is an informational resource mostly filled

with regularly added notes (posts), which contain texts, images or multimedia. Blogs usually contain quite short posts of temporary importance, sorted in reverse chronological order (the last post at the top). The main difference between blogs and traditional diaries is based on the environment: blogs are usually public and expected to have detached readers, who can initiate public polemics with an author (in comments). In this section the interested persons registered on PlatoNick may present their blogs concerning various issues (problems, events) of social life of national and international scale.

In this section the interested persons registered on PlatoNick have a right to present their thoughts, ideas and aphorisms on various topics.

In this section registered opponents can hold professional discussions on announced scientific subjects. The initiator registers a topic, invites an opponent and starts the discussion (the opponent must accept the invitation). The initiator specifies parameters of the duel: topic, scale and language. Discussion must be held in one language - any language elected by participants (available to the widest audience possible) or in two languages (in this case English is obligatory).

Science news

Chat

Chat is multilingual. It is possible to choose any language of discussion and participate in discussion in any language (even if the subject and discussion are shown in a language unknown to user, he can still understand the point of a discussion through a language integrator (translator) and take part in the discussion using any language). Apart from the discussion subjects search function allows finding certain subjects and branches of discussion on the basis of a language attribute (for a particular language carrier to have a possibility to find branches, where the discussion is held in a known language, if any).

Category Eidos is well-known to admirers of ancient philosophy. This universal definition in fact substantially unites various elements and nuances of the thinking process. As ancient philosophers understood, Eidos is some kind of a structural unity of the element of perception, the process and the result of its cognition. As a result of such unification a special essence is born - “substantial reality in thinking”, defining the origin of any concept.

Category Eidos was widely used and interpreted by famous philosophers long before Plato. But it is the great philosopher Plato, who developed its contents to the highest extent in his philosophy.

In Platonic tradition the Eidos acquired the status of the essence, inherent to objects, which leaves it’s clear print on the soul of the object, interacting with it. Cognitive activity of the person is directed to these particular Eidoses. Eidos is the only truth, that person can know about the essence of things.

Taking the above mentioned into account, we suppose that the title of our project and significance of its main contents become understandable.

In the virtual world of PlatoNick we offer all open for communication thinkers to become something like antique philosophers and present their creative expressions and researches for everyone interested.

Intellectual communications stimulate personal and collective progress of their participants. In our project communication of thinking people is not limited by the effect of their self-improvement. We additionally fill communications with factors of image recognition and growth, accumulation of bonus capital, convertible into status titles of the International Academy of Science and Higher Education.

Eidoses

Section Eidoses includes credit units of the website. Publication of author’s materials in these units allows their authors to collect credits for their intellectual activity and analytical achievements.

In every unit of the website, included in the Eidoses section, users can use functions “read” and “publish”, while visitors can only use the “read” function.

Credits for author’s materials are given to appropriate persons on the basis of assessment, concluded by users of the website.

We will be happy to see you among

participants of communications

of the intellectuals community!

Membership in the social network PlatoNick together with participation in research analytics championships of the GISAP allow a person to accelerate the process of accumulation of credits for conversion into status-titles and scientific degrees of the IASHE.

Mechanism and rules of use of credits acquired by the person in PlatoNick in the conversion procedure is regulated by special Regulations.
