"In this enlightening book James Boyle describes what he calls the range wars of the information age—today’s heated battles over intellectual property. Boyle argues that just as every informed citizen needs to know at least something about the environment or civil rights, every citizen should also understand intellectual property law. Why? Because intellectual property rights mark out the ground rules of the information society, and today’s policies are unbalanced, unsupported by evidence, and often detrimental to cultural access, free speech, digital creativity, and scientific innovation."

BeholdTM is a search engine for high-quality Flickr images. It aims to answer your queries based on what is inside the images -- at the pixel level. It offers a completely new way to search for images, using techniques of computer vision. It is different to standard image search engines, such as Flickr or Google, because those search through images using only image tags and filenames.

Behold looks for high quality images, so you don't have to sift through hundreds of poorly taken pictures to find a good one. Behold uses both aesthetic and technical quality indicators to find some of the best images available online.

Remix is all about taking existing material and making something new out of it. It's a familiar concept in music but extends to all creative content so why isn't the literati getting amongst it? There's no reason why writers can't mix, match, push and pull content to create remixed works. And that's why remix my lit exists.

Good news. The notion of Lessig as the Copyright Czar, while it would never happen, is even better.

Penn State's own OER license. I'm wondering why they didn't go with an existing license? Does it differ or is it an administrative thing?

Have to agree with Link-- Lessig spanks Keen and, to my total unsurprise, seems to reveal Keen as a shallow polemicist rather than a sly self-parodist

Lessig is quite charitable in attributing ASCAP's ninnery to "misunderstanding" rather than the elaborate FUD that it actually is. But he still kills it.

Fighting license problems/proliferation by introducing another license. I'm not completely convinced (I don't buy the argument about SA being stifling nor the 1-step confirmation process for public domain being "complicated" "rigamarole") but will ponder
