Figshare, created by and for researchers and scientists worldwide touts itself as a permanent research data storage and sharing platform.
But, most interestingly, “FigShare offers full search and browse, all data is citable with handles for persistence, and the upload function is amazingly quick and simple. The interface is clean and intuitive with everything that users need to know provided up front. Data is visualised and everything is clickable.” [Thanks to the DCC blog]
Not to mention that they have incorporated CreativeCommons licensing into the upload proces. Cool.
