Props is a Web service that lets you share paper recommendations. It works in three easy steps:
- Log in with your google account. If you don't
have an account yet, you will be able to create one using the log-in
page.
- Add papers to your proplist. When you find a paper you
like enough to recommend to others, use the site to add it to your
proplist. Your proplist is the list of papers you've recommended
over time.
- Share your proplist with others. Once you've created an account,
you will be given a small snippet of HTML to add to your Web page. This
snippet will fetch the most recently added props from your proplist and
display them. You can tweak this snippet to change how many props
are displayed, or to change the physical dimensions of what is
displayed.
That's all there is to it! For example, here is a proplist maintained
by one of the site creators:
