Copyright regime vs. civil liberties

January 14, 2008 by jdaviescoates 1 Comment

I just came across this video after reading this interview Google Tech Talks July 31, 2007 ABSTRACT Rick Falkvinge, the founder of the Swedish Pirate Party and the international politicized pirate movement, talks about the rise and success of pirates, and why pirates are necessary in today's politics. He'll also outline the next steps in the pirates' strategy to change global copyright laws. The fight against copyright aggression tends to focus on economic aspects of the shift to a … [Read more...]

Dialstation: Cheap International Calls from Your Mobile

October 30, 2007 by jdaviescoates 3 Comments

Ever wondered what the best way to make international calls from your mobile is? Well, the answer is Dialstation. There are lots of ways to an initiate a call (including a facebook app) but the one I've personally found most convenient is to simply text a contact from my address book to Dialstation. Say, for example, I want to call my Dad in Spain. Both he and I only have mobile phones and he has never even used a computer so voip is out of the question for now. Normally, (unless I buy … [Read more...]

Network

July 15, 2007 by jdaviescoates 2 Comments

Here are some clips from the amazing 1976 film, Network. A truly brilliant film about media that also touches on the realities of oil and money. The classic "Mad as Hell" speech is repeated a bit below, because I wanted to include the first clip that includes what happened beforehand, but that doesn't include the reaction to the speech and so I had to include the second clip here too. Enjoy! :) And remember to get hold of and watch this movie in full. It is fantastic. … [Read more...]
