POPSThe journey is the destination: Dan Eldon In the ensuing confusion, all four young men were beaten, clubbed and stoned to death by an angry mob furious about the death of over 50 of their friends, fathers, and brothers at the hands of U.S. and U.N. soldiers. The journalists who died that day were Hos Maina, Anthony Macharia, Hansi Krauss, and Dan Eldon. Visit the source to see the work being done by the Creative Visions Foundation to "inform others about critical social economic and humanitarian issues."

POPSFlickr + Library of Congress: Flickr Commons What a great idea. Collaborative tagging and description for publicly-owned, historic photos. Some creative thought re copyrights as well -- they've introduced a new designation, "No known copyright restrictions." Cool.

POPSThe 1000 Journals Project Those who find the journals add something to them. A story, drawing, photograph, anything really. Then they pass the journal along, to a friend or stranger, and the adventure continues.

POPSSteal my content, please!
I completely agree with Scoble on this one, although I can understand why people who make their living directly from their creations have a hard time letting go of the fear of giving away at least some of the rights to their content. Cory Doctorow began releasing all of his literary work under creative commons licenses years ago, allowing people to freely download and distribute his work under some light provisos. I downloaded and read "Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom" on my palm pilot, freely and legally, and was hooked. Because of that, I've read a huge amount of his writing, become a mammoth fan, and will likely purchase every book he publishes. I've also published everything I've written, shot, and produced under a similar license. While that certainly hasn't brought me traditional commercial success, it has definitely accelerated serendipity countless times for me, and if you trace out the effects of those 'lucky' events, it's helped shape both my career and life.

POPSBan Comic Sans I completely agree with this campaign. Once in a great while comic sans is appropriate, but more often than not, it's neither jaunty and creative enough to be as whimsical as intended, nor consistent and well enough designed to communicate professionalism. Comic Sans is the wrinkled, untucked dress shirt of fonts.
