So yeah, about books…

September 7th, 2005 by Gavin Baker

While we’re on the subject: Should we post about book releases? (And, by extension, movie releases, etc.?)

Under what circumstances? That we know the author? That we’ve read the book? That we get a copy of the book to review? That the book is released under an open license?

Before the book is released, or only after we’ve had a chance to read it?

What do you think?

    It would make sense to post about media relevant to FC.o’s mission. Post on.

    I think you should write about books and movies that are relevant to the whole Free Culture movement. I don’t think all books commented have to be even reviewed, I think it’s good to just give tips to people what books are coming out and would be of interest.
