Blogging CFP, ILAW
Posted by
There are two conferences right around the bend that I consider must-attend-if-at-all-possible: the Berkman Center's Internet Law Program and the venerable Computers, Freedom & Privacy conference.
The good news for those who may not be able to attend: both conferences will be well blogged.
CFP, which takes place T-F of next week, is providing blogspace for attendees who wish to blog sessions at the conference. Yep, I'll be there to blog a number of Copyfight-pertinent panels, as will fellow Copyfighters Wendy Seltzer and Jason Schultz (who are also panelists). We'll keep you posted on details.
ILAW, meanwhile, takes place next month (May 13-15). It's just what it promises -- total immersion in the most pressing issues of the day, with sessions guided by a handful the nation's top cyberlaw experts: Jonathan Zittrain, Charles Nesson, Yochai Benkler and Lawrence Lessig. As long-time Copyfight readers may remember, I've repeatedly blogged ILAW, enjoying the experience just as thoroughly each and every time. Perhaps inspired by my past efforts (blows on knuckles, rubs on sleeve), the Berkman Center is now offering some form of scholarship/discount for people who blog it -- presumably at the official ILAW weblog. I can't seem to access the site right now, but details should be available there soon.

Hi Donna, we're trying to be as inclusive as possible with CFP blogging... that is, there's no exclusivity to who will be allowed to blog (or post comments as usual)... if you've never blogged but would like to give it a shot... send me an email and we'll get you set up.
As well, we'd like to try and spread out the blogging as much as possible for the concurrent sessions as they happen in large chunks!

So glad you're going to be at CFP Donna! I'll look for you.
Besides the CFP Wiki you pointed at, there are also supposed to be some blogs that go with the formal panels, or so I understand. And some other folks from The Well and I will be blogging to a Salon-based blog at
http://blogs.salon.com/0003750/ .
See you soon!

The CFP wiki now has links to the panel and concurrent session blogs added (note: some of these may not "work" until the first post.)

Terrific, Bruce! It's going to be some conference.
Joe, I'll create another post to make sure people know where to go/look for CFP blogging.
