Scan This Book!

Scan This Book!: "The article by Kevin Kelly in today’s New York Times Magazine is a masterful explanation of the impact on knowledge that will evolve from the inevitable digitizing of all of the books ever written. And that is just he first half of the article. The second half of this outstanding essay, called Scan This Book!, explains the hurdles and confusions of the copyright chaos now engulfing creative publication. An irony of the article is that it will itself only be a part of the open content it explains for the few days during which it is available without payment to the New York Times Archives."
