Google announces open access to its research publications, now that
ACM will permit it

http://j.mp/10IAcXg  (Google+)

   "The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) recently announced a
    new option for publication rights management, wherein researchers
    can choose to pay for the public to have perpetual open access to
    the publication ( http://goo.gl/OXlYp ). Google applauds this new
    option, and today we are announcing that we will pay the open
    access fees for all articles by Google researchers that are
    published in ACM journals.  IEEE ( http://goo.gl/qqeka ) also has an
    open access option for some of its publications, and we also pay
    the open access fee for them and for publications in like
    organizations."
