2006-12-08 Thread Stacey Herbert
I'm considering this course and would like to hear about the  
experience of anyone who has taken it before. If you have a moment to  
drop me a line off list, I'd appreciate it.

thanks in advance,

Stacey Herbert

[MCN-L] Online presentations of interest

2006-12-08 Thread Diane M. Zorich
Two recent Princeton University talks/presentations that may be of 
interest to MCN folks:

When Worlds Collide: The Thomas Jefferson Papers in the Era of eBay
Kevin Guthrie (of Ithaka) discusses the new forces and organizations 
emerging from today's rapidly evolving networked economy that pose 
new challenges for the academic enterprise and for our scholarly 
projects. He highlighted some of the major forces from the commercial 
information economy that are colliding with the prevailing 
approaches of the scholarly community. The collision of the world of 
networked digitized information, with its new methods of access and 
formats of communication, introduces challenging questions of scale, 
scope and control for the academy.

Content Protection and Digital Rights Management: Accessing Your 
Media in the Digital Home
  Doug Dixon (http://www.manifest-tech.com/Manifest Technology)
Imagine having a comprehensive library of music and movies. And 
imagine being able to listen to your holdings in your car, when you 
jog, or while sitting at your computer. And so, you might reasonably 
expect that buying digital media from Apple, Microsoft, or Sam Goody 
would contribute to that vision.  To be sure, as content has become 
digital, consumers are indeed finding it much easier to access such 
media, but also to copy and share it. In theory, with just a single 
click, customers could share perfect digital copies worldwide. Upset 
with rampant piracy, especially given the high value of high 
definition, digital content, owners are finding new and innovative 
ways to protect their copyright and intellectual property.
