]]> Comment on Did President Obama violate copyright laws? by Joe Jarvis http://lindaleea.wordpress.com/2009/04/13/did-president-obama-violate-copyright-laws/#comment-197 Joe Jarvis Mon, 20 Apr 2009 14:33:47 +0000 http://lindaleea.wordpress.com/?p=155#comment-197 So long as the music was put on the iPod legally in the first place, there is no way it should even be slightly considered copyright infringement. Does the music industry really expect to get royalty from the sale of music as it initially leaves its hands and then every subsequent sale from there on out. If I sell my friend my car, GM doesn't get a cut. In my opinion the music industry is so backward thinking that they deserve everything that is coming to them. Just because BMG is no longer making a fortune, does not mean that artists will stop producing new music.

The laws are not keeping pace with technology and may never truly be able to which leaves us in usage limbo. Copyright law, fair use, purchase downloads, gifts–what a legal nightmare!

I downloaded the article and have added it to my arsenal against technophobic attitudes.

I wonder if he has already read it. If there was ever a time that we can 'change" education I think it is now. I thoght about sending Obama the web 2.0 book. I wonder if he has already read it.

I think it would be great for brainstorming ideas and may try it at work. Today I introduced the Wiki to my supervisor and he wants me to show it to the rest of our quality team as a way to keep track of our projects. So perhaps when I check out the wordle I will be able to use it as well. Thanks for all these neat tools.

One has to wonder if these sites were more well known and prevalent over the past 8-10 years if the results would have been any different. Personally I am unsure if the results would have been different but I do feel that Americans would have been more informed by the amount of accessible information available and encouragement from peers to get out and vote. Changing education is a difficult task. More schools and more money is not always the answer but it is a start. Increased teacher salaries will attract higher quality teachers that currently do not wish to be underpaid and overworked (what can I say, I am glutton for punishment?) Change in education will come with a new effective approach as old and out dated pedagogy are replaced with technology competent teachers that use Web 2.0 tools to help create collaboration and further a deeper understanding in the content itself.
