Super Free Beer
Danish artists, SUPERFLEX have created the first open source beer called Version 1.0. The beer is licensed under Creative Commons' Attribute-ShareAlike license so any one can make the beer and, if they choose, sell it using the Version 1.0 recipe, design, and branding elements as long as they credit SUPERFLEX.
The group also has a new project called COPYSHOP. I'm guessing a lot is lost in the translation, but it sounds like they are creating shop where people can photocopy anything, paying no mind to copyrights, as well as selling products "that challenge intellectual property." Anyone read Dansk?

Great.
This is the end of the CC/EFF movement.
Mark my words, Gates is somehow behind this. He's cunning.

Oh man, I totally don't even remember that! P.S. Larry is still passed out on my couch.
