Open Source in the EnterpriseAn O'Reilly Radar Report
Using open source in the enterprise — the question is no longer "if," but "how?" The low cost, easy access, and expansive license terms of open source are certainly attractive — especially since IT budgets have decreased 3-5% every year, while software costs have increased, and IT staffs have been tasked to create web services and pursue Web 2.0 initiatives.

Lawrence Lessig REMIXED: Making Art and Commerce Thrive in the Hybrid ...
By M. David Peterson
[October 16, 2008]
From REMIX: Making Art and Commerce Thrive in the Hybrid Economy, Lawrence Lessig's *HOT* off the presses new title:
For more than a decade, we've been waging a war on our kids in the name of the 20th Century's model of "copyright law." In this, the last of his books about copyright, Lawrence Lessig maps both a way back to the 19th century, and to the promise of the 21st. Our past teaches us about the value in "remix." We need to relearn the lesson. The present teaches us about the potential in a new "hybrid economy" -- one where commercial entities leverage value from sharing economies. That future will benefit both commerce and community. If the lawyers could get out of the way, it could be a future we could celebrate.
