While it’s been blogged and twittered to death (in a good way!), direct your Interweb browser to the Creative Commons Case Studies page to check out some great example of how free culture community members are using Creative Commons licenses in some really rad projects. CC recently announced the launch of the initiative, which consists of a user-driven semantic wiki that makes it easy for the diverse group of creators and supporters to share their stories of CC-powered projects. The Case Studies project benefits many different groups: creators can share and promote CC projects, new members can use the case studies as a springboard for innovative remixes and other original work (hopefully also released under a CC license), and the CC movement can continue to grow and support its mission to spread the word of reasonable, human-ified copyright licensing and access to creative culture.
