The Journal of Biomedicine and Biotechnology (JBB) is converting to open access, effective immediately. Quoting from yesterday's press release: "JBB will adopt a mandatory open access model whereby authors will be required to pay an article processing charge of $495 for any article published in JBB. The journal will continue to have both an online (which is now freely available with no subscription or registration barriers) and print editions." JBB is published by Hindawi Publishing Corp. (PS: Kudos to JBB and Hindawi!)

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.
