Open Source: Free Books and the Future of Christian Education

ReadWriteWeb featured Flat World Knowledge on their blog today. "Flat World Knowledge started out with a revolutionary idea, which was to start creating and publishing college textbooks that were absolutely free online." This business model has been launched with $8 million from venture capitalists. What I find more exciting than free college texts books, is that Flat World is integrating social reading tools into their system.

Someone need to hop onto this model quick!!
