On the Shoulders of Giants - CCsalon Video
Friday, May 4, 2007 at 2:34PM
I often drop the following two quotes into talks, to emphasise the fact that what I speak on is borrowed and built from the work of others:
Interesting, considering the source of that one. And:
I mention them to emphasise the importance in business of sharing and collaboration in order to increase speed, productivity, and (ironically) creativity. This is a big reason why we should support Creative Commons.
Check out this vid of the recent iCommons Salon (entitled "Bring and Braai") held in Cape Town, where Lawrence Lessig (CEO of Creative Commons) emphasises the point that digital borrowing and remixing is being criminalized... and what we need to do to make sure that we have the digital freedom to create freely. Jimmy Wales also appears with a call for more African Language contributors on Wikipedia. Heather Ford and I had fun MCing the event :-) :
By the way, Missing Link sponsored and produced this video... They rock!

Good Designers Copy, Great Designers Steal - Picasso
Interesting, considering the source of that one. And:
A dwarf on a giant's shoulders sees farther of the two. If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants. - Isaac Newton

What is all this hex code that suddenly these days fly around the blogsphere .. I must have missed something somewhere ... off to get my hex calculator to figure out what Dave has written.
LOL! Marius... It's the crack code for all the Sony HD-DVDs that have been produced up until now. I'm not particularly interested in pirating dvd's but it goes to show the flimsiness of DRM. More info on http://mybroadband.co.za/blogs/2007/05/03/09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63-56-88-c0/" rel="nofollow">MyBroadband.
Ok now I get it ... not that I have any HD-DVD's to crack in anycase
[...] As previously reported, the iCommons event of April 20 went off a storm. For those that missed it (and I suppose those who were there), you can watch the vid of the evening’s events kindly put together by Missing Link. The clip is brief and largely focussed on the messages of Larry Lessig and Jimmy Wales so there is unfortunately very little musical content at all. Anyway, take my word for it, the bands were great. Thanks Dave. [...]
Hey, we've updated the vid a bit...Mo's sending it through...!

I never thought this that sometimes straightforward topics like this can also become exciting.
In some Asian nations, like inside the Philippines, farmers are still employing “carabaos” for cultivating the land.
