Code v2.0 Launches

I saw that Code v2.0 was just released over at Lawrence Lessig’s blog. Parts of the new version of the book were wiki developed – and the entire book is available online for free – or in print. The book is also licensed under CC Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 license – meaning you can create your very own derivative work and re-distribute it… this has some very interesting implications.

I just ordered mine from Amazon – print copies are only $12 (and easier to read).
