Grey Tuesday
Tuesday, February 24 will be a day of coordinated civil disobedience:
websites will post Danger Mouse's Grey Album on their site for 24 hours
in protest of EMI's attempts to censor this work.

=============================
http://www.potatoland.org and http://www.culturekitchen.com are going
grey on Tueday. I'll also have the album available for downloading.

Hi Lee,
Thanks.
It's an issue that's been under my radar for some time.
I'll be blogging more about this and cross-post here.
Cheers.

Hi Marc,
I say, make your organization less browser dependent and, in that same
vein, more interactive outside of the browser. Meaning, WAP, RSS, PDA
friendly. Make it easy for people to trackback, ping, linkback (or
whatever it is you want to call it) your content. Make it easy for
others to create a web of context around your site. Will it create more
hassles like comment-spam? Absolutely, that may well be the case. But
the internet is not just about content, it's about people and the only
way you're going to get people to commit to your message is by engaging
them in a dialogue. And just getting them into your site is not enough.
The web browser does not scale. With an aggregator, I can scan more
than 300 sites on a daily basis. Back in the old days, I could view
most of the web on a week (1995). You've just gotta make it easier for
people to get to furtherfield. I mean, I rarely go to Rhizome's front
door --because I have no incentive to do so. On the other hand, with
Rhizome Raw, even if it does not have the activity of its hey-day it is
still the most interesting thing Rhizome has to offer because it is
Rhizome's social space. If I could have it on my aggregator, it would
make me even happier.
Furtherfield is a fabulous site with a lot of interesting stuff to look
at --but I have to go to your front door to know what's new. I'm sorry
but the ease of looking at more than 300 sites in under an hour will
kick out any non-syndicated sites from my "Must See" list. And, no, RSS
is not just a geek thing. MyYahoo! just introduced an RSS module to
their services. They made email ubiquitous, I am sure that they'll do
the same with RSS.
So the moral of the story is: Make it easy for your potential audience
to get to your content in as many ways as possible. I mean, your site
is supported by the BBC. Make sure you check their web-dev process. I
read their specs were floating somewhere on Kazaa.
Best,
