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.

Awesome product
Size: King, Color: Navy Blue
From this point forward, this is the only company that I would use. All is one color, and not having the white fabric in the middle is a bonus!

Nice dark blue color
Size: Twin, Color: Navy Blue
Bought 2 dark blue for twin beds and they look good with my blue and white quilts covering the beds. There are some wrinkles in the cloth due to packaging which may relax with time. but don't show much due to the dark color. I did find any defects in the stitching or fabric on the items I purchased. A note for prospective buyers is that the dust ruffle covers the entire bed foundation, so get help to put on under a heavy mattress.

Lightweight, Easy to Install, and Holds Up Well
Size: Full, Color: Black
This bed skirt has been a great purchase. It’s very lightweight, which actually made it super easy to put on the bed without a struggle. Once in place, it looks nice and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s also held up well to my almost-teenager being a little reckless at times, no tearing or issues so far. For the price, it’s definitely a good value. Overall, simple, functional, and worth it if you need a clean finished look for your bed.
