Science journal made free to read for everyone

Tweet

http://www.springer.com/life+sci/journal/12052 "Evolution: Education and Outreach" is freely available to anyone who visits the above site until the end of this year. This journal is full of interesting articles regarding its eponymous subject. ;-) I found it fairly accessible for even lay readers, so if you're interested in learning more about evolutionary biology, this may be a good link. As for anyone else, does anyone else like open access journals? I think it's a generally good practice that will benefit science and the public in the years to come. I always found it frustration how many journals require subscriptions or are only available through databases. I usually find myself having to pester the authors to get copies of their papers so I can read, or having to spend a lot of time frantically trying to get as many articles as I need at the local uni. It's so much nicer when I can simply find what I want on-line, in the comfort of my own home. This is where I enjoy reading and browsing the Internet, not at a frantic pace to search for the information I want at some public access terminal!
