[MCN-L] Online presentations of interest
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. http://blogs.princeton.edu/itsacademic/2006/10/when_worlds_collide_the_thomas_jefferson_papers_in_the_era_of_ebay.html 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. http://blogs.princeton.edu/itsacademic/2006/12/content_protection_and_digital_rights_management_accessing_your_media_in_the_digital_home.html -- Diane M.
