ABSTRACT

The Internet Journal of Chemistry (IJC) ( www.ijc.com) is an
electronic-only electronic journal with the primary aim of publishing
the results of high-quality research in all areas of chemistry.  Unlike
conventional e-journals in chemistry and other scientific disciplines,
IJC offers a wide variety of innovative features, functionalities, and
content that augment and enhance use and understanding of article text.
Among these are user annotation and commentary; data manipulation;
electronic discussion forums; electronic manuscript submission; font,
format, and display control; modeling; multimedia components;
personalization; and reader participation. IJC is an outstanding example
of the 'eclectic journal', an emerging form of the next- generation
electronic journal.
