Guardian on research publishing



The Guardian has a piece on the problems of research publishing 
(part of what it appears to be an ongoing conversation at the 
paper):

The essay calls for post-publication peer review.  The author's 
position is that the crisis in research publishing has come about 
because people are publishing material when they do not in fact 
have anything to say.
