[Air-L] First Monday shutting down after 30 years

[Zimmer, Michael]

Really sad to hear that First Monday is shutting down after 30 years of publication. It was one of the first journals devoted to internet research, and a true pioneer in open access: no fees, no paywalls, and authors retained their copyright.

My very first publication appeared there in 2004, and I know an entire generation of us got our start in its pages. Many thanks to Ed and everyone who contributed to building and sustaining such an important venue. End of an era.
