It will make it easier to cite, Issue X, pages 1 - 3, and since they chose pdf there is less of a chance that they'll update/change it. I agree it breaks the web a little, you can't comment on articles or link directly to them, but that's a trade off I'm sure they thought through.
Google indexes pdf's so I don't know where you go the idea that they didn't.
- danw 17y agoA link to a permanent URL for each article would also be easy to 'cite'.
- omouse 17y agoIt would also be easier to have conversations about. Instead of forcing everyone who wants to talk about a particular article to download the whole PDF, you can link them directly to the article (and with a better Web, you could link them to the exact sentence and paragraph you want to draw their attention to).
