Free: The Future of a Radical Price

Free: The Future of a Radical Price is the second book written by Chris Anderson, Editor in chief of Wired magazine. The book was published on July 7, 2009 by Hyperion. He is also the author of The Long Tail, published in 2006.

Overview

Free follows a thread from the previous work. It examines the rise of pricing models which give products and services to customers for free, often as a strategy for attracting users and up-selling some of them to a premium level. That class of model has become widely referred to as "freemium" and has become very popular for a variety of digital products and services.

Release

Free was released in the United States on July 7, 2009, though the night before, on his blog, Chris Anderson posted a browser readable version of the book and the unabridged audiobook version. Anderson generated controversy for plagiarizing content from the online encyclopedia Wikipedia in Free. Anderson responded to the claim on his The Long Tail blog, stating that there were disagreements between him and the publisher over accurate citation of Wikipedia due to the changing nature of its content, leading him to integrate footnotes into the text. Also on his blog, he took full responsibility for the mistakes and noted that the digital editions of Free were corrected. The notes and sources were later provided as a download on his blog.

  • Moon

    The Moon (in Greek: σελήνη Selene, in Latin: Luna) is Earth's only natural satellite. It is one of the largest natural satellites in the Solar System, and, among planetary satellites, the largest relative to the size of the planet it orbits (its primary). It is the second-densest satellite among those whose densities are known (after Jupiter's satellite Io).

    The Moon is thought to have formed approximately 4.5 billion years ago, not long after Earth. There are several hypotheses for its origin; the most widely accepted explanation is that the Moon formed from the debris left over after a giant impact between Earth and a Mars-sized body called Theia.

    The Moon is in synchronous rotation with Earth, always showing the same face with its near side marked by dark volcanic maria that fill between the bright ancient crustal highlands and the prominent impact craters. It is the second-brightest regularly visible celestial object in Earth's sky after the Sun, as measured by illuminance on Earth's surface. Although it can appear a very bright white, its surface is actually dark, with a reflectance just slightly higher than that of worn asphalt. Its prominence in the sky and its regular cycle of phases have, since ancient times, made the Moon an important cultural influence on language, calendars, art, and mythology.

    Moon (visual novel)

    Moon (styled as Moon.) is a Japanese adult visual novel developed by Tactics, a brand of Nexton, released on November 21, 1997 playable on Windows PCs. The game was described by the development team as a "Reaching the Heart AVG" (心に届くAVG Kokoro ni Todoku AVG). The story follows the protagonist Ikumi Amasawa, a girl who joins an organization called Fargo in the hopes of discovering why and how her mother died, who was a member of the same group. The gameplay in Moon follows a branching plot line which offers pre-determined scenarios with courses of interaction, and focuses on the three female main characters. The game ranked twice in the national top 50 for best-selling PC games sold in Japan.

    Much of the staff that created the game later became the founding members of the visual novel brand Key. Moon was the starting point for Key's origins, and was the first time the principal Key team was formed. A novel based on the game written by Midori Tateyama was released in July 1998 by Movic. The game's original soundtrack was released bundled with Dōsei's soundtrack in August 2000 at Comiket 58; Dōsei was Tactics' first game. Moon has been referenced in other media not directly related to the game, such as in Tactics' third game One: Kagayaku Kisetsu e, and in the second anime adaptation of Key's first game Kanon.

    List of Beast Wars II: Super Life-Form Transformers characters

    A list of characters from the 1998 anime series Beast Wars II: Super Life-Form Transformers and film Beast Wars II: Lio Convoy, Close Call!.

    Maximals

    The young Maximal (called Cybertrons in Japan) crew of the Star Voyager find themselves on a post-apocalyptic Earth called Gaia with the mysterious Angolmois energy. Their goal is to defend Gaia from the forces of Galvatron and his Predacons, otherwise they will be destroyed.

    Lio Convoy — Lio Convoy is honest, with a strong sense of right and wrong, and at times his seriousness appears humorous. He has a harsh, career-military side to him, but also has a human's gentleness. There are times when he behaves as if he knows something about the secrets of the planet where the battle is taking place. His beast mode is that of a white lion. Lio Convoy is also known in some continuities as Leo Prime, and is one of the more prominently featured Beast Wars II characters to appear in other Transformers series. He and his crew feature somewhat prominently in Beast Wars: The Gathering and Beast Wars: The Ascending, where several of them are a Black ops unit known as the Pack. He has also appeared in toy form outside Beast Wars II, typically as a repaint/remold of another Transformer with a lion alternate mode. These toys have included recolors of Transformers: Cybertron Leobreaker and Transformers: Prime Thundertron.

    Somebody's Watching Me

    by: Warmen

    Somebody's Watching Me
    (Originally performed by Rockwell)
    I'm just an average man with an average life
    I work from nine to five, hey hell I pay the price
    But I want is to be left alone in my average home
    But why do I always feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    And I have no privacy
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    Is it just a dream?
    When I come home at night
    I lock the door real tight
    People call me on the phone I'm trying to avoid
    Well, can the people really see me or am I just paranoid
    When I'm in the shower, I'm afraid to wash my hair
    cuz when i open my eyes to find someone standing there
    People say I'm crazy, just a little touch
    But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much
    That's why...
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    And I have no privacy
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    Is it just a dream?
    I don't know anymore
    Always watching me
    Was it mother fuckin mailman watching me huh?
    I don't feel safe anymore, oh what a mess
    I wonder who's watching me now?
    Who?
    The IRS?
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    So is it just a dream?
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    Who's playin tricks on me?
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
    Who's playin tricks on me?
    I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
