Fair Use and the Economy
A study shows "Fair Use Contributes Trillions to U.S. Economy." I guess that is good news. Check out Wired.com for the details.

LikeA Beating Heart
Filed under ridiculous things found for sale on the internet:
Probably not for a limited time only, ThinkGeek is selling a Plush Beating Heart. To sweeten this "sweet-heart" deal, it's on sale for 25% off! Who wouldn't want a beating heart for Valentine's Day.

Control-a-Dog Remote Control
Think Geek has a great gift idea for any dog owners: Control-a-Dog Remote Control
Tell the dog to attack...or roll over. You're now in control and it's available at thinkgeek.com. They also ofter similar remotes for Cats or small children. I wonder, how do they do it?! How does it work?

Amazon Drama
Interesting article in the times about Amazon.com attempting to make good on their 1984 issue: Amazon Offers to Replace Copies of Orwell Books. The question remains: When you buy a book virtually, are you buying it or just temporarily subscribing to it?
