BioWizard....announces the launch of PubMed Wizard, an online resource enabling the universal open-access review of scientific and medical literature. For the first time, scientists have the ability to freely rank and discuss in real-time any of the more than 16 million published articles within the PubMed database.
BioWizard was designed to make scientific knowledge dynamic, enable post-publication review in an open-access forum, and resolve vital deficiencies in how scientific information is accessed, reviewed, shared, and archived. Now, BioWizard's PubMed Wizard transforms current static literature searches into an active and interconnected resource for scientists. Using PubMed Wizard, authors and researchers can now post comments, share ideas, and ask questions on a live archive of all published literature, giving everyone in the community a voice and allowing ground-breaking research to rise to the forefront of scientific debate....

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.
