The Power of Open from Creative Commons
The Creative Commons project has announced the release of a 47-page
book highlighting the stories of a number of people using CC licenses for
their work. "The Power of Open collects the stories of those
creators. Some are like ProPublica, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative
news organization that uses CC while partnering with the world's largest
media companies. Others like nomadic filmmaker Vincent Moon use CC
licensing as an essential element of a lifestyle of openness in pursuit of
creativity. The breadth of uses is as great as the creativity of the
individuals and organizations choosing to open their content, art and ideas
to the rest of the world.
" Unsurprisingly, it's downloadable under
a CC license.
