Open Data License Announced

Hugh McGuire’s post “The Question Concerning Digital Technology” sets out some of the things that are coming in web technology. Including:
- All data on the web will become structured, and mostly available
- More data sets (eg government-owned) will arrive on the web, and more people will participate in using that data to understand the world, and make decisions, to order nature
That reminded me that the Open Data Commons has finalized an open database license with “Attribution and Share-Alike for data/databases”. It is Creative-Commons-like goodness for data. Spread the word.
