Do not avert your eyes. Listen and learn. It’s so important that I wish this blog had a feature that would allow me to auto-post every week forever.

Enjoyed this (but I wouldn’t like to copy her jacket!).
That’s what I thought! Her shoes aren’t working for me, either.
I disagree. That lady’s outfit is slammin’!
(Her ideas were great, too!)
great presentation. LINUX!
No copyright, extraordinary creativity, huge profits (and losses sometimes of course!). QED.
See my earlier blog posts on this issue.

I’m working on a related book this summer at Social Philosophy and Policy Center.
Ed, what’s your book about?
Stephan,
It’s an in-depth treatment of the dual forms of entrepreneurship that I see in this industry. I draw on competitive innovation ideas. I will send you a short proposal/description. See my post here, for a glimpse: http://divisionoflabour.com/archives/007161.php
Best,
Ed
This video was just posted on Slashdot. I love that site for tech news, but man, what a bunch of idiotic commenters. They constantly complain about the mess the copyright and patent system is in, but very few think that it should be outright abolished. Great video, more ammunition for the cause.
Great video! Thank you very much for sharing!
Jeffrey,
Maybe you can’t set the blog to automatically post every week, but you certainly could use one of the many free automatic tweeting services available to have the mises.org twitter account tweet a link to it every week.
The software elites like Adobe, Microsoft and Apple are cringing as the world slowly realizes the benefits of Free and Open Source Software.
so the question is how is a book less utilitarian than a sock?
There are some autoblogging tools out there al though it depends on the quality of content you are hoping to post.. Enjoyed the post..:)
The Radii, I would suggest that anyone who takes your advice about autoblogging should take a look at the video that is posted on youtube about the difference between autoblogs and autosplogs before they waste their money on any autoblogging tools. Here is a link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyTdl52XLo4
love her outfit sans the shoes. i think what she is saying really needs to be heard by many more before any changes could occur.
a very good topic in the site
Very good video. Makes sense. She does definitely needs new shoes..
it is anice know website
Great presentation, very informative, yes the outfit was a bit disappointing.
Interesting points on self-copying but didn’t like her outfit!
Great video! But the lady’s outfit is boring.
