Canadian Copyright Board allows
downloads, copyright levies

Canadian Copyright Board allows
downloads, copyright levies 12/14/2003 12:27 PM

The Copyright Board of Canada issued a ruling on " private copying ", largely via peer-to-peer computing, with several components. First, downloading is acceptable, but uploading is not (presumably to target hyperpirates). Second, new mechanisms for levies were described, freezing current ones, allowing new charges.

the Copyright Board said uploading or distributing copyrighted works online appeared to be prohibited under current Canadian law. However, the country's copyright law does allow making a copy for personal use and does not address the source of that copy or whether the original has to be an authorized or noninfringing version, the board said.

The Internet As The Fifth Estate?

The Internet As The Fifth Estate? 04/14/2004 01:05 PM
There's a constant (and, it seems, incredibly boring) debate about "blogs vs. journalism" - which seems sort of pointless to me. It's not as if this is a zero sum game where there's room for only one. The two work off of each other, and often the lines are quite blurry between them. Trying to set up a specific "us vs. them" dichotomy is only an attempt (by everyone who bothers) to get more publicity. Still, I found it interesting to find an editorial in a large newspaper suggesting that the internet has become "the fifth estate." It's not often you see the mainstream press admitting that anyone outside of themselves has a place in their world at all.

Fourth Estate Failure

Fourth Estate Failure 08/12/2004 03:21 PM
"There was an attitude among editors: Look, we're going to war, why do we even worry about all this contrary stuff?'' "Editors at The Washington Post acknowledge they underplayed stories questioning President Bush's claims of the threat posed by Saddam Hussein in the months leading up to the U.S. invasion of Iraq." The weblog Lunaville notes that The Center for International and Security Studies at the University of Maryland found that "since September 11, 2001, the Bush administration has been especially successful at getting the American media to confirm its political and diplomatic agenda. Media reporting on the President amplified the administration s voice: when Bush said to the country that Americans are vulnerable to WMD in the hands of terrorists, the media effectively magnified those fears." Lawrence Lessig says: "As media becomes more concentrated, competition to curry favor with politicians only increases... Concentrated media and expansive copyright are the perfect storm not just for stifling debate but, increasingly, for weakening democracy as well." Can we make the media democratic?

Real Estate Commissions are Too Low

Real Estate Commissions are Too Low 06/22/2005 02:23 AM

People who sell $1 million condos often complain that paying a 6 percent standard (read "fixed by collusion" among realtors) commission is too much ($60,000 for what might only be a few days of work).  Economists who have studied the real estate market, however, find that in some ways the commission is too low because realtors don't work very hard to sell clients' houses compared to their personal houses.  In other words they sell a customer's house relatively cheap so that it will sell quickly rather than work for many weeks to get the best price and 6% of the extra.

Why haven't we seen anyone propose a commission structure that says the realtor gets a 25% commission... but only on the amount above the assessed value of the property?  Your typical $1 million NY or Boston apartment is assessed at maybe $850,000 and could be sold for that price with almost no effort in a few days so the commission paid on such a sale shouldn't be more than $1000.  If a realtor could sell the place for $1.2 million via clever marketing, however, she should be entitled to a fat commission.

The Real Estate Game

The Real Estate Game 09/08/2004 08:51 AM
Some of you have purchased homes before, so you know a bit about how the process works: Mortgage Approval, Appraisals, Surveys, Title Searches, Purchase Agreements, Stipulation Sheets, Closing, Whining, Bickering, Signing 1,000,000 pages, Moving, blah blah blah... Even though it's a scary thought when you first start, and you've probably heard enough horror stories to not want to go through the process, it's really not that bad. It's actually pretty easy if you take a little time and learn about it. It makes more sense than most college curricula, and it doesn't take a genius to figure it out. Literally anyone can play the game if they have a dedication to making things happen. This is an introduction to real estate investing using my 4 years of personal experience as a guide. While all of my experience has been on the U.S. side of the pond, I'm sure enough of this information will apply to everyone to make it worthwhile.

Now she sells real estate in Los Angeles...On the flip side of lyrical fame, 16-year-old Brenda Spencer inspired another set of lyrics in 1979 -- the Boomtown Rats' haunting song "I Don't Like Mondays" -- which chronicled Spencer's slaying of eight school children and a principal at an elementary school near her San Diego, CA-area home. It's not an urban legend: Spencer told a reporter who called her during the 6 1/2 -hour siege that she opened fire because, "I don't like Mondays. This livens up the day." Spencer reminds us today that schoolya rd shootings are not a new phenomenon. Now 42, Brenda is serving a 25-year sentence and is up for parole soon...

On the iPod and shortsightedness on the
Microsoft estate...

On the iPod and shortsightedness on the
Microsoft estate... 02/05/2005 10:08 PM

I have enormous performance anxiety at the moment. The world's turned to look this way for a few scant moments and everyone else is rising to the challenge and I'm just hiding. And it looks like I'm not the only one. Apparently, loads of Microsoft employees are using iPods instead of Microsoft-related products. You may not see the direct connection here, but everyone's looking at the digital music arena at the moment, Apple are doing tremendously well in it and there's absolutely no reason why Microsoft couldn't just look at their competitors, pull themselves together and go out there and try and create something even greater. It's not like they're short of cash or bright people. But instead they're burying their heads and pretending it isn't happening:

An internal e-mail circular sent to several senior managers in mid-December talked about iPod shipments to Apple's nearby store in Bellevue1. The e-mail said: "FWIW, the gal at the Bellevue Square Apple Store said that they are getting in two shipments of 200 iPods every day to keep up with this week's demand, and are nearly constantly selling out."

The note prompted a curt reply from Dave Fester, general manager of the Windows Digital Media division, who wrote the group: "I sure hope Microsoft employees are not buying iPods. We have great alternatives..." Fifteen minutes later, the manager responded: "I don't know what I was thinking. I'm sure that Microsoft employees are not buying iPods, or Macs or PlayStations."

I find this totally stunning and completely wrong-headed. Microsoft are trying to play the loyalty card to get their own staff to use their products even when they don't want to? They're making it a matter of fealty? This is no way to be creative - it's no way to operate in a commercial marketplace today. People don't make better products by not using the best ones that currently exist. And companies don't spot trends and opportunities by forcing their employees to lose faith in their own preferences and choices and become forced proselytisers of another's beliefs.

iPods everywhere is an opportunity for Microsoft. It sounds ridiculous but it's true. That there's a market that they haven't conquered - a space they haven't won it - should be the greatest reason to aspire to greatness. That there is something beautiful and functional in their midst that is worth admiring shouldn't be ignored just because they didn't make it. It should inhabited and ripped apart - explored and enjoyed, all with aspiration to see the cutting edge - the popular choice - and look to see how it could be surpassed.

It comes down to having respect for your craft and for the world in which you live. If you want to make great things then first you have to know what makes something great. And if you want people to make things that trigger enthusiasm in others then a good start would be to encourage that same enthusiasm in your staff. Making something that's true to itself is much easier when you're honest about its failings. Wise up guys, let them have their iPods. Let them learn from them, let them revel in them and then get them in a room and think of something that'll blow it away...
