Publish or Perish implies, if we don’t publish, someone perishes.





Is there any scientific journal that allows an author to share his work in a way he or she desires, than tailor them for somebody who may not even read it?
Docile obeisance by us is reflective of either a submissive state of mind; devoid of creativity and even desire for freedom of expression or a vestige of colonialism. A probable answer seemingly lies in the question: Why should we publish in tailored spaces?

Connectivity has shaken the global arena. Publish (in tailored spaces) or perish was relevant till yesterday. Today, more researchers relay on information available on the virtual world. Focused social platforms are becoming melting pots of ideas.

Spread of the tentacles of tailored spaces resembles more a corporate style. What is the combined footprint of all tailored spaces? Ironically, in the present knowledge era; education has become a commodity. Should we not be concerned?

The inability to rise together on this stems from our selfishness or vestigial remnants.
