Browsing arXiv categories by date. Keep up to date not just on the latest days posting, but postings from the last week or any date you wish. The first iPhone arxiv browser to offer full date browsing.
Search the arXiv by author, title, full text, with and without restrictions to specific categories of the arXiv.
Save preprints to your iPhone for later, offline browsing. Organize your offline readings in self-named folders.
Email yourself or others preprint information for later reference.
Read PDFs in both landscape and portrait mode.
Arrange arXiv categories and subcategories in an order of your preference, for quick access.
Even its fiercest critics will struggle to argue that open-access publishing has not brought about a revolution in the way scientists engage with the latest research findings.
Driving the reformation in physics and maths is the arXiv preprint server, which was pioneered by Paul Ginsparg at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and is currently hosted by Cornell University.
Now the revolution continues apace as a new innovation will enable frontline physics to be winged straight into the palms of researchers....
It remains to be seen whether arXiview will be a bit hit amongst physicists but I can already picture a handful of the uber keen ones wowing their colleagues at conferences as they reel off the days latest findings....
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.
