Compare to the likes of http://mirrors.creativecommons.org/getcreative/clicktoplay.html (yes, it's Flash) which is much more accessible to the average joe who's never heard of the idea.
I can't access Flash (is there a good free software Flash player?) and they haven't provided an accessible html/css version. What does it say/do?
It's essentially an animation, in a kind of cleaned-up South Park style, if that makes any sense. I don't think it would translate well to HTML, but I don't know if they have it in any other formats.
It's basically an introduction to the Creative Commons idea, using very clear language and basic ideas. It's very good promotional material, I think.
I think it's a lot simpler than asking someone to read through a number of essays, some of which come in many different versions. The GNU philosophy page is good history, but not a good introduction, I think.
Cheers,
Alex.
