BioInspired! So What? Now What!

One of the goals of the BID Community is to improve access to information about biomimicry and bio-inspired design.  Kadhir Manickam has started the forum topic Requesting Feedback on Categorizing Process! to gather ideas on what information is of value and how it should be organized for easier access.  Anyone registered on the BID Community website can post comments. 

I have been testing a tool for maintaining and sharing references.  Please see zotero and Shared Bibliographies for the current status.  Again, this is available to anyone registered on the BID Community website.
