Publisher for the people

Mike Eisen, HHMI investigator (science cred!), Mad Men devotee(cultural cred!) and (oh yeah) co-founder of PLoS (Science 2.0 cred!) gets some love from this paper, so they get some love from us.

Biologist Michael Eisen hopes to accomplish for science publishing what Linux set out to do for computing.

Not bad.
