talking copyright on campus at CKUT (McGill)


I was awake and surprisingly coherent this morning at 7 a.m., for an interview with Courtney Kirkby, host of the Wednesday Morning After show on CKUT radio at McGill University in Montreal. We discussed recent changes to Canadian copyright law, how those changes are being broadly misinterpreted by educational administrators, and the longer term implications of that misinterpretation for Canadian students, teachers, writers, publishers and the cultural economy in general.

 Have a listen why don't you?

finally, I'm popular (high-school-me would be very impressed)




Recently, while doing some quick research in preparation for a copyright presentation I will be giving, I came across respected intellectual property lawyer Barry Sookman's compilation of copyright- and IP-related blogs.

I admit to being stunned - stunned - to find this very blog at #11 on a list of the most popular Canadian intellectual property and technology law blogs.

I'll bet we're #1 (maybe in the world) on a list of intellectual property and technology law blogs not written by a lawyer.

Now, how can I monetize this status? C'mon Internet - show me the money.
