What I think of the idea behind WebmedCentral:


I think it is an excellent idea, particlularly it will be easily accessible, on time, one can read it at any time without loading your brief case with journals. It will also follow  the golden rule of "Go Green " no more wastage of paper and hence less chopping of trees.

Keep moving and best wishes.
