Irreverently championing free speech and universal access to information—even if it's just a free download of the newest Britney Spears MP3—he leads off with a mutinous talk given at Microsoft on digital rights management, insisting that they stop treating their customers as criminals. Readers will discover how America chose Happy Meal toys over copyright, why Facebook is taking a faceplant, how the Internet is basically just a giant Xerox machine, why Wikipedia is a poor cousin of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and how to enjoy free e-books. Practicing what he preaches, all of the author's books, including this one, are simultaneously released in print and on the Internet under Creative Commons licenses that encourage their reuse and sharing. He argues persuasively that this practice has considerably increased his sales by enlisting readers to promote his work. Accessible to geeks and nontechies alike, this is a timely collection from an author who effortlessly surfs the zeitgeist while always generating his own wave.</p> Please read the legal notice included in this e-book and/or check the copyright status in your country. http://feedbooks.com/book/2883.png http://feedbooks.com/book/2883.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/2883.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/2883.mobi The Right People Adam Rakunas http://feedbooks.com/book/3563 en 2008 Short Fiction Science Fiction Sexuality <p>Imagine what high school would have been like if dealing drugs had been legal when licensed, mobile social networking had been ubiquitous and the in-crowd had more leverage than most political parties… what would the smart-but-slightly-crazy outcasts end up doing?</p> <p>In Adam Rakunas’s novella “The Right People”, they’re in the lucrative but precarious position of selling clandestine bootleg sex toys to the overachievers, but the rug is about to be pulled out from under their operation…</p> <p>It’s simultaneously a slice of full-bore gonzo science fiction blended with a Brat Pack movie, and a timely metaphor for the present presidential tussle, and Futurismic is very proud to present “The Right People” as Adam’s first fiction sale - in fact, I think we’re lucky to have found him first!</p> <p>Do be warned, though - this one’s definitely not for the very young or the easily offended!</p> Please read the legal notice included in this e-book and/or check the copyright status in your country. http://feedbooks.com/book/3563.png http://feedbooks.com/book/3563.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/3563.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/3563.mobi Hole David Lovato http://feedbooks.com/userbook/1181 en 2006 People had called him mad, crazy, insane; but he had built this place, this underground shelter anyway.

Boyle argues that just as every informed citizen needs to know at least something about the environment or civil rights, every citizen should also understand intellectual property law. Why? Because intellectual property rights mark out the ground rules of the information society, and today’s policies are unbalanced, unsupported by evidence, and often detrimental to cultural access, free speech, digital creativity, and scientific innovation. <br />Boyle identifies as a major problem the widespread failure to understand the importance of the public domain—the realm of material that everyone is free to use and share without permission or fee. The public domain is as vital to innovation and culture as the realm of material protected by intellectual property rights, he asserts, and he calls for a movement akin to the environmental movement to preserve it. With a clear analysis of issues ranging from Jefferson’s philosophy of innovation to musical sampling, synthetic biology and Internet file sharing, this timely book brings a positive new perspective to important cultural and legal debates. If we continue to enclose the “commons of the mind,” Boyle argues, we will all be the poorer.</p> Please read the legal notice included in this e-book and/or check the copyright status in your country. http://feedbooks.com/book/3471.png http://feedbooks.com/book/3471.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/3471.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/3471.mobi The Baum Plan for Financial Independence and Other Stories John Kessel http://feedbooks.com/book/3189 en 2008 Short Fiction Science Fiction Collections <p>An ex-con finds himself falling, once more, under a seductive, amoral woman's spell. A hidden door in a summer house leads to a land of plenty. An inventor's life converges with the pulp fiction he reads. In "Pride and Prometheus," the Bennett sisters encounter Dr. Frankenstein and his monster. And, in his acclaimed and award-winning Lunar Quartet, Kessel explores the gender dynamics, politics, and long-term sustainability of a matriarchal lunar colony. This astonishing collection ranges from science fiction to the surreal while intersecting with Frank L. Baum's Oz and the characters of Flannery O'Connor, Mary Shelley, and Jane Austen. By turns satirical, horrific, funny, and generous, these stories showcase the manifold gifts of a modern-day master.</p> Please read the legal notice included in this e-book and/or check the copyright status in your country. http://feedbooks.com/book/3189.png http://feedbooks.com/book/3189.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/3189.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/3189.mobi Ultra Menage-a-Quatre MC Radiance http://feedbooks.com/userbook/971 en 2003 A neo-Shakespearean, post-modern comedy script.
