NPG has an enviable reputation for innovation, developing timely and award-winning solutions to scientists' information needs. One of the first scientific, technical and medical (STM) publishers to recognise the power of network effects, NPG launched Connotea, the document tagging and social bookmarking web site in 2003. Nature Network, NPG’s social networking service, is connecting scientists at a global and local level. Scintilla collects data from thousands of journals, databases, news outlets and scientific blogs, making it easy for users to organise, share and discover exactly the type of information they are interested in. The success of the weekly Nature Podcast has led to the construction of NPG's own in-house podcast studio.

Nature Publishing Group’s Asian website, natureasia.com provides information in Japanese, Chinese, Korean and English on all NPG publications and services. NPG’s second country-specific portal Nature India launched in 2008, following the successful launch of Nature China in 2007. nature.com provides access to all NPG publications and online databases and services, including Nature News and Naturejobs. nature.com is one of the most popular scholarly websites on the internet, serving almost 12 million visitors a month with well over a million registered users.
