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.
