Damn: Turning off the Torrent

: PaidContent says that two days after the MPAA went after BitTorrent sites, two of them -- including the pivotal SuprNova.org -- have shut down. Damnit. Not all the Torrents violate copyright but that baby is out with the bathwater.

A Christmas gift to Glenn Reynolds

: Denny Crane (William Shatner) on Boston Legal: "It's a good feeling to shoot a bad guy -- something you Democrats would never understand."

Books

: I'm going to speak to BookExpo, the confab of book folks, about citizens' media and blogs and all that in a few months. Please start telling me what you think the book biz should learn from this new medium. I share my thoughts later.

: I neglected to blog this good piece from The Times about all the bloggers turning out books (and the intrepid agent to the bloggers, Kate Lee).

Whereabouts

: Been away: at church until all hours with rehearsals for the Christmas Eve pageant, then seeing Series of Unfortunate Events and the day is gone, over, toast. Blogging later, probably with a few longer posts in the morning.
