Always Great to Read Cory
Cory Doctorow is an amazing author, columnist and all around tech-guru/watchdog. I always enjoy reading what he writes and especially if its about DRM and locked-down tech.

A Mini Opera on My BlackBerry Curve
I’ve had my BlackBerry Curve (the 8300 model through AT&T) for a little over 3 months.

DMFW Update
I am at the Digital Music Forum West to try to start dialogs with imeem, MySpace and maybe with the Zune team from Microsoft. One thing i’ve noticed is that there is some innovation in thinking here.
