Personal Development for Smart People^TM Forums

I was at Border's earlier today looking for a mother's day present for someone important in my life, when I was looking up on the store computer to see if "Personal Development for Smart People" was in stock. I found out that it was and that there were a bunch of e-books that seem to be from his blog posts. Are these officially sanctioned or released by Steve himself? Is this a result of him releasing his copyright? Some were going as high as $10.00 and the cover designs look like they were derived from PDSP title.

Here is a link:
Search Results - Borders - Books, Music and Movies

I am just curious about all of this, that's all.

This is interesting, I wonder since he released his copyright if someone can take his material and publish it and capitalize off of it?

Ever since Steve released his copyright, this is exactly what people are allowed to do without asking for permission first.

None of those are mine or are endorsed by me. They're all from other people using my uncopyrighted materials.
