Hindawi is pleased to announce its "Country Web Pages," which give its web site visitors an overview of the research output of a particular country published in Hindawi's open access journals. Along with the list of articles originating from the country, these pages also list the scholars who authored these articles, the scholars who are currently on the Editorial Boards of Hindawi journals, and the scholars who reviewed one or more articles for any Hindawi journals in the past couple of years.

"Our next project will be the creation of Research Funder Web Pages, which we hope to release in the near future."
The Country Web Page for a particular country can be accessed using a URL of the form http://www.hindawi.com/countries/code/, where "code" is the ISO Standard 3166 two-letter code of that particular country. For example, the Country Web Page for Germany is located at http://www.hindawi.com/countries/de/. ...

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature

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.
