The Distributed Library Project lists the personal book, movie, and music collections of participating users. You log on, find somebody near you with something you want, make contact, and borrow it from them. Apparently it launched in April, in the San Francisco bay area, and now has 160 users. (Thanks to LIS News.)

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
