I think it would be great if Mendeley would contribute to a more fair judgement of scientific merit. By integrating the best of a scientific social networks and useful data management capabilities, I believe you're on the right track. The best of luck for your team and Mendeley! Exactly!

It's widely understood that impact factors as a ranking are broken, so Mendeley's stats could be a useful replacement. Looking at the <a href="http://www.mendeley.com/stats" rel="nofollow">ranking of the top 5 journals in the biological sciences</a>, the effect of Open Access on PLoS is already emerging.
