There's a new Slashdot thread on two new sci-fi novels that their authors --Cory Doctorow and Charles Stross-- have decided to release simultaneously in OA and priced/printed formats. (Thanks to William Walsh.)

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.
