Academic Piracy Site
I've been waiting a few months to see if it would work - and it has.
Right now their is a Russian website that operates like Napster for academic journal articles. This is a revolutionary step, and a straight-forward blow against the publisher mafias that charge outrageous prices to access the knowledge created at public-funded universities. There has been lots of debate over Open Access movement and I have heard scientists complain about how stupid the current set-up is - this changes the set-up and makes it easy. Even if you belong to a university you only get access to what the institution subscribes to or else you have to fill in request forms and wait for it.
