Journal of World-Systems Research (JWSR)This 9 year commitment demonstrates my typographical skills and my attention to detail in the book arts. All the publication work, including the web site, was done by myself with no assistance. The site took a revolutionary approach to electronic academic publishing by delivering professionally typeset PDF at no charge to the customer. The quality of the publication exceeded most academic print journals and quickly became a popular academic site of note. By the end of my tenure the site was receiving 15,000 site visits per month and transferring about 8 GB of data per month. While these are modest numbers for many periodical sites, JWSR’s traffic has proved to be unusually successful in the academic journal market. JWSR is an official journal of the American Sociological Association. |
