You know that Alexa has crawled the 10 billion web pages of the Internet Archive and that an Alexa-Archive partnership offers offers open access to the result through the Wayback Machine. But now the same crawl is available by subscription or even on disk "[f]or organizations capable of hosting or mining an entire crawl index that exceeds 60 Terabytes in size". (Thanks to LIS News.)

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.
