Stuart Shieber has launched The Occasional Pamphlet, a new blog. Stuart is a professor of computer science at Harvard, Director of Harvard's Office of Scholarly Communication, and the chief architect of the influential Harvard OA policies. The blog will frequently cover OA, as I'll show in just a moment when I blog excerpts from two of his recent posts. (Welcome, Stuart!)

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.
