Nice features: When you search for a term or phrase, you can choose among the hits by reading short (10-12 word) transcripts of the passages which include your search terms. When you pull up an individual video, you can search further within it. Not so nice: unlike vanilla Google, individual searches don't have individual URLs.
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.
