Socjourn

The Socjourn
From Athabasca University in Athabasca, Alberta Canada. According to its Web site, it is "a new media journal intended to offer sociologists a window into the world of new media communications. Recognizing that traditional scholarly publication in traditional scholarly journals is limited, slow, and isolated ..., the Socjournal aims to bring sociology to the world by providing blog space, regular columns, and academic reports designed to popularize and disseminate the fascinating world of sociological research." Previously known as Electronic Journal of Sociology.
