The Wikipedia entry on $\ln 2$ includes this summation:
$$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}{\frac{1}{n \cdot 2^n}} = \ln 2$$
I was very surprised when I saw this, and I don't have a clear sense of where it comes from. This doesn't seem related to the Taylor series for $\ln x$. It somewhat reminds me of the sum
$$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}{\frac{n}{2^n}}$$
which converges to $2$, but I'm not sure whether there's some way to manipulate the first sum in a way that relates it to the second. It also vaguely reminded me of the sum from the harmonic series, except that the $2^n$ term in the denominator breaks that similarity as well.
Is there a simple explanation as to why this sum gives $\ln 2$? Does this generalize to any other natural logs (say, could a modified sum give back $\ln 3$), or is this oddly specific to $\ln 2$?
