The site was created by Dr. T. Ryan Gregory, a biologist at the University of Guelph, Canada, in January 2010. This project was launched in response to the growing challenges of academic life in the information age, and the increasingly available (but often underutilized) solutions to these challenges. It is intended to be a free resource for scholars and students to enhance their productivity and reduce their stress levels.
