The [open review experiment](http://mediacommons.futureofthebook.org/mcpress/ShakespeareQuarterly_NewMedia/) conducted by MediaCommons on behalf of Shakespeare Quarterly continues to make a splash. Previously covered by Jennifer Howard in the [*Chronicle of Higher Education*](http://chronicle.com/article/Leading-Humanities-Journal/123696/), the experiment has now led to a [front page story in the *New York Times*](http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/24/arts/24peer.html) looking broadly at the ways that peer review is being opened up through projects such as ours and the Center for History and New Media’s [Hacking the Academy](http://hackingtheacademy.org/).

We’re ecstatic to have gotten this attention. Now we hope to follow through. If you have an account here, you can already create a scholarly profile, publish your own blog, and build a research network. We’re taking proposals for projects that our network members want to develop under our auspices, and we’re also looking for submissions for MediaCommons Press. Get involved with us here, and help us build the future of scholarly publishing.
