I'll return to live-blogging next week at the Intellectual Property Scholars Conference, an amazing and extremely valuable conference for IP folks to present their works-in-progress and get feedback from their colleagues.

I have previously written about the problems associated with the Copyright Royalty Board's new royalty rates for webcasts.

From ZDNet: "Google’s role in an open source world by ZDNet's Dana Blankenhorn -- Google proves you can scale an enormous company in a short time, share code extensively (under a variety of licenses), yet still keep what you need to have private, private."

Here's a quick live-blog of Prof. Michael Geist's dinner talk tonight at the Computers Freedom & Privacy conference in Montreal.

Future of the Internet -- Where was the Internet in 1997 -- early webpages, early issues (i.e., spam). Some we are still discussing, some not.

Sadly, Yahoo is no stranger to morally questionable business decisions relating to their dealings with the Chinese government.

I love museums as much as I love old library stacks. There, I said it.

I’m back . . . and I’ll attempt to live blog the third copyright panel. I got no angry emails, so I’ll assume that I’ve done an innocuous, irrelevant and/or good job . . . and I have thus proven my previous caveat that I will be unable to cover everything!

I figure that I'll take my first shot at live-blogging, having been inspired by the Bay Area Blawgers event on Wednesday at Santa Clara [thanks to Prof. Eric Goldman of Santa Clara Law School for setting it up].

It's old news by blog standards, as it happened last week, but the Copyright Royalty Board has announced the new royalty rates for webcasts.

A few months ago I mentioned that I was unburdening this website with my schedule updates, etc. for my radio show/podcast Hearsay Culture. And so it is done.
