Giving it all away
,----[ Quote ]
| Increasingly, due to the good offices of
| Creative Commons, much of the content on the
| web can be legally repurposed or
| appropriated for other use. I think this is
| a good thing. None of us want to waste time
| re-inventing the proverbial wheel, and we
| could bear in mind what Pablo Picasso once
| said: 'Good artists borrow, great artists
| steal'. So OK, 'steal' is an emotive word,
| which we probably don't want to associate
| with, but I get the sentiments behind the
| statement. A lot of art and music could be
| said to be 'derivative' - and there have
| been many court cases and fallings out over
| this grey area of creativity, but here's my
| point: I don't mind at all if other people
| borrow my content for their own purposes, as
| long as they attribute it to me and don't
| make any commercial profit at my expense.
| Many already have - some people have
| actually translated my content into other
| languages or used as a part of larger works.
| I'm an advocate not only of Open Educational
| Resources, but also the idea of Open
| Scholarship, which is where academics and
| scholars not only make their content
| available for free, they also open up
| themselves to constructive criticism from
| their peers. I hope we see more of this in
| the coming years and I am confident we
| shall.

Open Source DIY Tablet Kit Promises Versatility
,----[ Quote ]
| Last but not least is the BeagleJuice. As the
| main source of power, it's fitting that the
| power switch is located on this 2600 mAh
| power pack. It outputs up to 1.5 amps,
| promising a max battery life of 6.5 hours for
| the BeagleBoard (no info on how the
| BeagleTouch's operation affects this).
| Charging is accomplished through one or both
| type-B USB ports.
