Professor Lawrence (Larry) Lessig a good friend of ccMixter (maybe the best friend we’ve ever had ;)) has announced that he is handing over the reigns of CEO of CC.

The cool side of this is that the new CEO is Joi Ito a very good friend indeed ;)

Having Joi at the helm, along with new board member John Buckman on the board makes it feel like mixter is surrounded by good friends.

I’m told the change will have little to zero affect on mixter and for some unexplained reason I actually kind of buy it.
