The Dermatology Online Journal has been a very fun project. What we've done is to try to develop means to make the journal entries more accessible. The publishing process is similar to that of the Electronic Textbook of Dermatology. Since most of it is text, it can be transferred by email. The images can be sent by email also.
Scanners are wonderful for slides and negative for conversion into a digital format.
It is important for the information on the Internet today to have peer review. I'd like to acknowledge Phil Fleckmann, the editor of the journal, Tom Ray, who is the associate editor. It has been a joint venture. The journal was started as a cooperative project with an open invitation to the dermatologic community to participate in using the online journal for publishing.
