Monday, July 11, 2005 at 10:07PM Kevin Marks recently explained microformats to Chris Pirillo. The myriad possibilities are all interesting, but here's a goodie, rel="license": "relLicense is a simple, open, format for indicating content licenses which is embedable in (X)HTML, Atom, RSS, and arbitrary XML."

Steve Gillmor: "Information will search for you, not the other way around."
Sunday, July 10, 2005 at 5:55PM CNBC is airing an excellent documentary on eBay: The eBay Effect. Incredible discussions throughout with Meg Whitman, fascinating facts about the company and its community, and lots of attention to the unique legal and ethical issues eBay confronts. An added bonus: learn beyond a shadow of a doubt the proper pronunciation of "Omidyar!"

Friday, July 8, 2005 at 9:16PM Just read Doc's excellent follow-up essay about Grokster. I'm working on a discussion piece that attempts to look at the case practically from the standpoint of developers who understand, as Doc says, the absolutely critical nature of innovation, and that "fear is the enemy here." As soon as it's done and posted, you'll be the first to know. We're also putting together a related talk, and will present it in northern and southern California locations (again, will keep you posted re the details), hopefully in connection with some academic partners.
Bonus links, via Kevin Heller: Judge Posner and Professor Samuelson offer their thoughts.
