Editorial Reviews

Review
"Community created content is hard, really hard. This book helps you understand what works, and what kills projects. Essential reading for any new project on the Internet." --John Buckman, founder of Magnatune

"This book is a must-read for anyone interested in founding a community content project." --Timo Vuorensola, director of Star Wreck: in the Pirkinning

"This book provides an invaluable compendium of the many legal issues, licensing systems, business models and broader policy and community concerns that arise in relation to the new trend of 'user generated content'." --Mia Garlick, general counsel of Creative Commons

Product Description
From Wikipedia to YouTube, community created content has created a lot of buzz. In this book, a trio of Finnish lawyer-activists and scholars Herkko Hietanen, Ville Oksanen and Mikko Välimäki summarize the law, business and policy of community created content. The authors teach and research technology law at Finnish universities. In addition, their law firm Turre Legal has consulted numerous clients on open content licensing and related issues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Legal for Communities made easy, February 19, 2007
This book really takes a very complex subject and makes sense out of it. The examples help make a real life case for why it is great to give out your content for free to the public and how you can commercialize the results. I have to say it has added something very special to our community.
