I am reading "Free Culture" by Larry Lessig(it's to download free online), and I am learning a lot about the history of copyrights and how it came to be, and what were the original goals of copyrights. Now that I am more interested in content on the net, and possibly creating content on the net, IP issues will be important to understand so I can steer clear of trouble. I am also hopeful that what Larry is fighting for will come to fruitation and that the world will be a freer place for ideas, on the net, well, as well as in other places.
