research research. there are a lot of things wrong with publishing and accessing research that really shouldn't be the case: public access to research is locked into expensive journals, while we already have tons of cheap distribution methods; published research almost never includes full datasets for third party analysis (storage is cheap, and distribution again); we never see research with unexciting results; researcher tools are crappy and expensive (there needs to be a free, user friendly, cross platform SPSS). The scientific method is great but it could sure use a tooling overhaul on all levels.
