It is Monday again and that means that it is time for another episode of the Copyright 2.0 Show.
We had to call it an early week this week on the Copyright 2.0 Show. Due to a family get together, I had to schedule the recording on Thursday instead of Saturday.
However, there was still a great deal to get through, including the AP controversy, a Fox News reporter in some hot water, Facebook taking some action against The Pirate Bay and two of the strangest stories we have ever covered on this show.
This week’s stories include:
- AP Fire Warning Shot at Aggregators
- Fox News Reporter Reviews Pirated Movie, Gets Fired
- New Protests Against the Author’s Guild
- South Korea Passes 3 Strike Law
- Who Would Copy a Parking Ticket?
- And Many more…
Also, in this episode, we have a pleas for involvement from you the listener as we need your help getting Patrick’s “Nerd Card” restored. Please, listen to the end of the show and send in your questions for Patrick.
Maybe, if we come together, we can make him a nerd again.

I think every webmaster can relate to the love/hate relationship with Google.

I wouldn't say it literally devalues everything it touches, and I have noticed notable improvements in web content search results, but sometimes it does seem like they allow things to get out of hand before they step back and say, "uh oh – Houston, we have a problem".I have a love/hate relationship with Google. I use it more than any other search engine and it seems to bring out the best and worst in results. I'd just like to see them get the jump on things a little sooner than they do, i.e. the DMCA issue, etc.
I'm not sure if I would say Google devalues everything it touches, I'm unsure if this site would have any value without search engines, but I can also understand why the AP feels as they do.Show notes link has been fixed, thanks for the heads up on that one!
RT @plagiarismtoday: Help @ifroggy get his “Nerd Card” back, suggest nerdy movies and nerd culture he needs to know: http://is.gd/sdAd
ifroggy quoted Wall Street Journal's editor Robert Thompson as quoted by Forbes, "Google devalues everything it touches"…Can we get an "AMEN"? I've felt this way for years.Also, the link for 'SHOW NOTES' leads to this page: http://www.diigo.com/list/Plagiarismtoday/episo…..That allows you to redirect to Episode 51 and I did find this episode, but thought you'd like to know the link is a tad broken.
