Finally some information about open access journals, hopefully
interesting for some of you: 

-- InterCulture is an e-journal focused upon the interdisciplinary study
of world cultures, the celebration and contemplation of cultural
diversity, and exploration of the commonalities of the human condition.
InterCulture exists to publish articles and media written from an
interdisciplinary perspective, without any preference for a particular
theoretical approach. Creative work, book, film and music reviews are
accepted as well.
http://www.fsu.edu/~proghum/interculture/homepage.html

-- PsychNology Journal is a peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary on-line
journal publishing contributions on the relationship between humans and
technology. The journal is committed to provide visibility to a wide
spectrum of work on this topic and offers the added value of an on-line
journal in terms of its format, which can be other than black-and-white
still images and texts, and freshness, in comparison with the long
period of time required to publish on a regular paper journal. As a
free, on-line journal it joins the efforts toward accessibility of
scientific content encouraged by various international associations
(e.g. the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences
and Humanities), at the same time warranting quality via a regular
review process. To support this initiative, make available Your work on
the Internet and cite on-line  publications.
http://www.psychnology.org/journal.htm

-- The Sahara Journal of the Social Aspects of HIV/AIDS is a vehicle for
facilitating the sharing of research expertise, sharing knowledge,
conducting multi-site multi-country research projects that are 
intervention-based with the explicit aim of generating new social
science evidence for prevention, care and impact mitigation of the
HIV/AIDS epidemic. ? The Journal will publish contributions in English
and French from all fields of  social aspects of HtV/AIDS. While the
emphasis is on empirical research, the Journal will also accept
theoretical and methodological papers, and review articles,  which
should not be longer than 3000 words, in addition, short communications,
and letters. Priority Is given to articles, which are relevant to Africa
and the  developing world and which address social issues related to HIV
and AIDS.
