Why the Future is FREE!

Google's doing it. Mozilla/Firefox is doing it. Linux practically invented the "business model" for it. The internet has only begun to revolutionize our lives and much of it's destiny seems to lie in the ability to serve up "free" content.

Free is relative after all since you generally end up "paying" for free web services through advertising or a share of your eyeballs really. But that's a whole other post altogether. Back to the issue at hand.

Chris Anderson, editor-in-chief of Wired Magazine, has a very interesting article about this trend. In fact, I would say that the Free Train is leaving the station and he's the one driving. If your a business geek like me, or if you like free stuff (which is pretty much everyone I know), be sure to check it out here.

Enjoy.
