大英百科全书的免费订阅
by Yan on 4月 29, 2008
大英百科全书推出一个 Britannica Webshare 的计划，只要你是个网络出版者 web publisher，就有机会获得免费网络订阅。网络出版者 web publisher 定义为：
“people who publish with some regularity on the Internet, be they bloggers, webmasters, or writers. ”
比较宽泛。他们同时声明有权拒绝：
We reserve the right to deny participation to anyone who in our judgment doesn’t qualify.
感兴趣的可去申请试试。大侠 kzeng 拿到了一个促销码，获得了一年大英百科全书的订阅。我也去申请了，看能不能成功。
不止你自己可以免费阅读，一旦成功，你可以在网站上链百科全书的全文，访客点进去可以阅读这篇文章，但不能阅读别的内容。
除此之外，EBWebshare 还提供一些 widgets，比如下面这个：
题外话：有朋友报告说格致首页被GFW掉，间歇性的，可能是关于《爱因斯坦文集》和许~良~英的帖子引起。带来的不便请谅解。
更新：偶也拿到了一年的免费网络订阅。

Nature Milestones – 自旋
by Yan on 3月 11, 2008
《自然》杂志推出了一个关于自旋的增刊，它是《里程碑》系列的第六期。
Nature Milestones are special supplements that aim to highlight the ‘milestones’ or remarkable achievements in a given field. Each breakthrough is covered in a short Milestone article, written by editors from the Nature Publishing Group, which discusses landmark discoveries in the context of the prevailing concepts at the time and our current knowledge of the field.
Milestones in Spin − the sixth supplement in the series and the first in the physical sciences − presents key developments in the story of ‘spin’. Spin describes the intrinsic angular momentum of elementary particles, a concept developed in the mid-1920s as physicists sought to explain experimental observations made decades earlier. Since then, the idea of spin has inspired major advances in physics, and has found practical application in chemistry, biology and technology.

In addition to the Milestone articles, the supplement includes a Timeline
− a chronology of the earliest papers connected with each Milestone − and a reprinted Collection of relevant articles and reviews from Nature, Nature Materials, Nature Physics and Nature Structural Biology. The Milestones web site also includes an extensive Library of material from the across the Nature Publishing Group.
另外，内容半年内可在网上免费阅读，目前还有增刊全文的 pdf 下载。
