COVID-19: Merging Twitter with the Journal of Brief Ideas to improve knowledge production in emergencies
There are a lot of great ideas poured in Twitter on several topics and COVID19. Its time to published them also in the Journal of Brief Ideas http://beta.briefideas.org/ . The advantages are that is fully machine quotable, instant publication, ORCID-linked, that generates a free DOI in Zenodo https://zenodo.org/. Merging Twitter with Journal of Brief Ideas will give a boost to our production of scientific knowledge during emergencies.
Note that the publication is not instant. All ideas undergo a quick review by the editors or others they consult.

Yes, it should said "quick review by editors" not instant. Which I believe it makes the journal more important. Thanks for the constructive comment.
