Open-Access Journals
Wired reports on the growing number of open-access (free) journals in academia. The article represents this as happening "despite concerns about the ethics of pay-for-play publishing" but the first two open-access journals that come to mind are the Australasian Journal of Logic and Philosophers' Imprint. I know one cannot pay to publish in the AJL, and I will eat my copy of Naming and Necessity if you have to pay to publish in Philosophers' Imprint.

Some journals both charge for subscriptions and for publication. When I was working at Cell (in 1993), its co-journal Neuron had page charges, and I am fairly sure that it was not given away free.
