I'm just glad they didn't misspell the URL of the site. That would have been embarrassing.

I thought the atricles are the gonads of Atrios. No wait, the atricles are what the drama queens indulge in.

I have seen this pop up on google searches. They have some good journals available for free, usually a few months after they are published. But overall I was put off by the format-- usabiliity is kind of lame.

findatricles.com is a very cool archive
No, it's not. findatricles.com is a directory of a couple dozen sites on the topic of economic development. findarticles.com, on the other hand...

Good site, but a little like pointing to Yahoo and saying 'check out this new search engine I found, guys!'
One of my favorite articles of all time, by David Foster Wallace, about prescriptivism and descriptivism in linguistics and a whole lot else besides, is only available online at that site (or used to be, at least, because a search is bringing back buggerall for me at the moment).
I note this merely to piss off languagehat. Heh.

findarticles.com is the Articles tab on LookSmart. Metafilter returns 13 newspaper stories. A quick search shows the article "Paper Napkin tells that guy to buzz off" is readily available.

The flashing bingo ad really lends it that tony academic ambience. Thank god for adblock.
Public libraries often have some fairly amazing online databases available from home to cardholders, BTW. Ebsco, Proquest, etc.

But, its another good resource to tap. And I really like the many ways in which results can be sorted. As well as the ability to make any search into an RSS feed, that's just handy!
