I release all my stuff under Creative Commons.

I think CC is the best suited license for texts and images. Which 
flavour to take depends on what rights you want to keep for yourself.

CC-0 - the same as public domain in the US, everybody can do what they 
want with the text.

CC-BY - everybody can do what they want with the text as long they 
mention the license and your name. I am so full of myself to use that 
one. ;-)

Then there are the more restrictive licenses with "Share Alike", "No 
Derivates" and "No Commercial use". http://creativecommons.org/choose/ 
has a questionaire for making that decision.

CC-BY-SA is about the same as GPL, I think. I used that for some time 
but dropped the "SA".
