hadess, I resent that statement. I’m full of shit, no e. Bloody english and their weird spellings.

:)

Sri keeps talking about hardware goodness. We need us some of that.
Was cool to see that Creative Commons released new licenses, and I updated my stuff, but there is no longer an option to do non-attribution licenses, which makes [...]

Lucky brits- Lessig will be speaking in London on Thursday as well as the Friday talk I mentioned earlier.

Work is pretty stressful at the moment, but I’m excited about working on cool stuff and about GUADEC.

Hadess needs to certify his blog as being BLX 1.0 compliant.

Futurismic reminds me of slashdot, in a time long ago [...]

Heh. The pythons aren’t all they used to be but this was fun.
I continue to have fun with planet. It was pointed out to me that you can share things with bloglines, but dunno- I just like fooling with planet, I guess. Not that I’m even sharing my planets yet, really, either, though I guess [...]

Just saw from NTK that Lessig will be speaking at Oxford a week from today. If you’re reading this, and you’re in the UK, run, don’t walk. His talk is powerful and persuasive and will make you want to go apply creative commons licenses to everything you have in bit-like form. So go.

Saw the first episode of The Office last night. Had some funny parts, but mostly just made me uncomfortable. Ended up spending the rest of the night watching old Futurama on replaytv instead. BTW, if you’re a replay owner, run, don’t walk, to dvarchive. It rules.
I’m excited that Stephen Donaldson is working on a new [...]

Found out last night that someone already has luis@gmail, just as someone already had luis@novell. Damn you. DAMN YOU ALL.

Scary- Penn State won’t let kids have servers in dorms. Experimenting with new tools is supposed to be part of the college experience, it is how you learn. Sad that PSU has been blackmailed to that [...]

Fascinating to me (trying to be ethical in a big company) that google continues to push very hard to be Not Evil. This guy is ridiculously overboard, but it does still make a good point- Google are clearly now the leaders/visionaries in the software space, and people are now looking to them and not MS [...]

I just set up a personal planet to trivially read some interesting IP law blogs, and a couple other folks who I like to read regularly but who aren’t on p.g.o. It ruled- it’s been a long time since I set up something so quickly and simply. Thanks to Jeff and Scott for setting up [...]

Wow. Advo back up. Very nice. :) So much to write about ilaw-wise, but so little energy after completely stuffing my face with redbones tonight.

Curtis, I’m not difficult, I’m demanding.

Stolen from Lessig: apparently the big hit of Cannes so far this year is by a 31-year old who has been putting together autobiographical tape since [...]

Frank Field has a very comprehensive set of notes and note links about ilaw 2004, the conference I’m attending right now. I hope I’ll have some more time to write about it later. Suffice to say that I’m glad these guys are on our side :)
