Creative Commons

Lawrence Lessig has founded a non-profit organization called Creative Commons.  It's primary goal is to expand the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally and to share.  I think that Creative Commons is a great organization and is very necessary in the culture that we live in.  It will allow much more creativity to circulate while still maintaining legality.  The Creative Commons licenses put the users in control of what which rights they reserve and which they do not.  This will eliminate the fear of copyright infringement because the works are being offered to the users to remix or change up.
