Did you ever wonder where on Earth the readers of this blog are coming from? Look at the map at the bottom of the sidebar. This cool technology from HitMaps shows where the blog visitors are located. The size of the red dots is proportional to the number of visitors from that part of the world. The map tracks visitors starting yesterday (November 1), and only registers traffic to the master edition of the blog at the Earlham server. (It doesn't know about visitors to the blog mirrors or those who read the RSS feeds.) Click on the map, or click here, for an enlargement. (Thanks to Pharyngula for the idea.)

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
