How did they do that?

Six Òimpossible thingsÓ: GNU/Linux, Wikipedia, the Creative Commons, the Blender Foundation, Open Hardware, and the OLPC/Sugar project. All created under free licenses for everyone to use, in defiance of our conventional ideas of business economics. Is it magic, coincidence, or just plain common sense at work here?

The author explores the reality of these projects from an insider's perspective and picks out a set of five easy to follow rules for keeping your own projects in tune with the rules of free culture and on the track to success.

Includes the entirety of the ÒImpossible ThingsÓ and ÒRules of the GameÓ article series written for Free Software Magazine, as well as five bonus articles on improving commons-based processes.

Paperback: 290 pages with 94 illustrations.

Always Reliable and Good Quality
I’ve always used Q-tips, and they’re just better than most other cotton swabs. The cotton stays in place and doesn’t fall apart easily, and the sticks are sturdy without bending too much.I use them for everyday things around the house, quick cleanups, and personal care, and they always work well. The 500 count box also lasts a long time.Simple product, but consistent quality every time.

Essential household item with great quality
These Q-tips cotton swabs are a household essential that I always keep stocked. The 100% cotton tips are soft yet sturdy and perfect for so many uses from beauty to first aid. The 500 count package is a great value and lasts a long time. I appreciate the quality and consistency of the original Q-tips brand. These are far superior to generic cotton swabs in terms of quality and durability.

I only trust Q-Tip brand!! Great product. Never had luck with generic swabs.
I only trust Q-Tip brand!! This is a consistently great product. I've never had good luck with generic swabs, they either bend, don't have enough cotton on the end, or fray as I use them. These are soft tips, yet the stick is firm enough not to bend. I'll always go with Q-Tips and this 500 pack is a great value.
