Abstract
The advent of the internet has turned research into a new form of serendipity. You decide to work on something, you do a search on the internet and you begin a journey full of surprises through the 1 million or so documents which Yahoo! tells you are relevant to whatever it is you are searching for. And that is just what I did when a few years ago I started working on migration. My first search term was simply ‘migration’. I was, but should not have been, surprised to find that the first few hundred or maybe thousand of the documents offered me were about birds.
It is easier to get into space than to get into Spain.
Bachir Attar, leader of the Master Musicians of Jojoka, after waiting for three days for a visa in the Spanish consulate in Tetuan (1998)
From up here you can’t see any frontiers.
Pedro Duque, first Spanish astronaut in space (1998)
