En enero de 2009, hartos del pillaje, los ciudadanos lanzan un Gran Concurso popular en Twitter: En 140 caracteres piden la dimisión del ministro de cultura Cesar Molina que está regalando el derecho al acceso a la información a multinacionales y empresas privadas. El 19 de marzo, día del padre (porque los piratas son los padres), los mejores eslogan aparecen recogidos en este video para que circule por toda la Red y deje claro de una vez que no queremos política en contra del bien común para el beneficio de unos pocos, ni queremos que nos quiten la mejor herramienta de comunicación de todos los tiempos, el P2P! Con el video viene una guía para darse de baja de las operadores de ADSL que están dispuestas a vigilar a sus usuarios. Y también una guía para darse de alta en las que no.

Crank Dat ROFLcon is a video of me teaching a roomful of people how to do Crank Dat. This was its URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Nn_iC... Today, I received a notice that it was taken down because of a copyright claim! Soulja Boy, are you going to stand by and let this happen to your fans? For real, email me: driscoll@mit.edu

Public Lecture in Auckland, New Zealand, about the war between "prohibitionists" and "abolitionists" in the copyright debate. Builds on old stuff, adds an idea about how best to deal with copyright in developing nations.

Following Cory Doctorow's talk about 2 weeks ago on, "The State of the Copy Fight", Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia gave a lecture during Evan Korth s Computer s and Society course at NYU on "Free culture, transparency, and search. his for-profit company Wikia and its three areas of operation: Library, Open Serving, and Search. Given the audiences familiarity with Wikipedia, Wales skipped most of his prepared speech on that and after he gave a brief background on open source software, how it works, and the fact that you can be commercially successful doing and using it, he spent most of his time talking about Wikia. Below is the full video of the talk (about 25 minutes followed by 25 minutes of questions, the beginning is a little jumpy but it settles down, sorry) followed by my notes from the talk.

it's another late night and I am rambling on as usual... have tried to but it down, but it's 2 minutes long still... hopefully 2 minutes worth watching..
