Introduction
So, you know ImpactStory and Altmetric.com (if not, browse my blog); these are wonderful tools to see what people are doing with your work. I hope you already know about OpenCitations, a collaboration of publishers, CrossRef, and many others, to make all citation data available. They just passed the 50% milestone, congratulations on that amazing achievement! For the younger scientists it may be worth realizing that for the past 20 years, at least, this data was copyrighted and not to be used unless you paid.
