Dear AP: You Don’t Get To Make The Rules
06.16.08 | Permalink | 3 CommentsI don’t really like to blog about copyright and whatnot much as I think it gets pretty tedious.

Last week it got pissed off that a site called the Drudge Retort was posting links to AP stories with a cut-and-pasted [...]

It’s About Time
I’ve been searching around for quite some time for a Wordpress client for S60 that would let me write and edit blog posts from my mobile. I’m not the only one — Ewan over at SMS Text News even went so far as to engage a developer through Rent-A-Coder or something to try and get [...]

PR Is Still Broken
03.07.06 | Permalink | 4 CommentsThere’s been a few mentions around some telecom blogs about the onslaught of PR spam that’s been unleashed on people registered as press for the upcoming VON trade show, which is largely concerned with VoIP.

BzzAgent’s Blogging Idea
02.27.06 | Permalink | 4 CommentsBack in January, I wrote about the controversial company, BzzAgent and how they’d managed to raise $13.75 million in VC funding.
One of my points that was that while word of mouth marketing was undoubtedly very, very powerful, paying people to spread the word defeated the whole point and undermined the credibility of the people passing [...] -

National Union of Journalists Running Scared
Britain’s National Union of Journalists (NUJ) has issued a Code of Conduct for Citizen Journalists (or what they call Witness Contributors), following an actually quite sensible sounding discussion at The Guardian.

More on My Nokia N90 Experience
01.15.06 | Permalink | 5 CommentsBack before I joined Mobhappy, Andy Abramson of Comunicano was kind enough to ask me to join the Blogger Outreach Program that was

Ask Nokia About the 770
12.08.05 | Permalink | 2 CommentsPaul over at MyPhoneRocks has a new feature on his site that sounds pretty cool. He works at Nokia, and has been trying to figure out how best to take advantage of that for his blog and its readers:

Weblogs Inc Sells to AOL for $25 million
10.06.05 | Permalink | 6 CommentsCongrats to Rafat Ali for the scoop that Weblogs Inc are selling to the venerable (and vulnerable) AOL for $25 million.
