FIAT LIBERTAS RVAT CAELVM

I don't know how I missed this one. I thought I'd read all the Baen free library titles. (FYI, I've completed at least two series that I started with the free library, so it's doing it's job quite well.)

Thanks for the heads-up!

I've wondered how life of our species will look after p2p internet takes over.. till I found this book.

Cryptographically secured web of trust between online identities? Check.
Non-government issued e-currencies? Check. (but, we've got even better one now)
Best solution to any problem(in this case, alien invasion) determined by online betting? W00t.
Traditional institutions/governments crashed in early 21st century cause of obsolescence? Check.

And...the ebook is free: http://www.baenebooks.com/p-833-earthweb.aspx

Incidentally, it also proves my sig false...but I'm glad.
