Fair question. We were originally going to submit this to the journal "Science" and this is what they have to say on their web site:

Prior publication: Science will not consider any paper or component of a paper that has been published or is under consideration for publication elsewhere. Distribution on the Internet may be considered prior publication and may compromise the originality of the paper as a submission to Science. Please contact the editors with questions regarding allowable postings.

Prior press coverage: Reports of the main findings of a paper in the mass media may compromise the novelty of the work and thus its appropriateness for Science. Authors are free to present their work at scientific meetings but should not overtly seek media attention or give copies of the figures or data from their manuscript to any reporter, unless the reporter agrees to abide by Science's press embargo. If a reporter attends an author's session at a meeting and writes a story based only on the presentation, such coverage will not affect Science's consideration of the author's paper.

That said, we're not 100% sure where we are going to submit this yet. So the terms may be slightly different but many journals have very similar guidelines and if you're feeling ambitious you can google a few yourself.

And, like I said, it's not even my decision to make.

Mike
