Report from the Boston Globe regarding MIT researchers posting 'raw scientific data' on an online website. This article introduces the open access concept to a wide audience - to quote the researcher, "We're a generation who expects all information is a Google search away,".... "Not only is it a Google search away, but it's also released immediately. As soon as it happens, the video is up on YouTube and on all the blogs. The old model feels kind of crazy when you're used to this instant information."
