In his February DisContent column for EContent, Walt Crawford argues the benefits of adding dialogue to professional writing, especially in online publications without firm size limitations. The example that inspired this line of thought arose from his comments on the BOAI FAQ in the October issue of his newsletter, Cites & Insights. I wrote a lengthy reply to his comments, which he reprinted verbatim in his November issue.

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.
