It's (Open) Party Time!
For anyone in Swinging London 2.0 next Wednesday, the place to be is the Open Rights Group party:It will be a night of public domain and openly licensed music, remixed visuals and free culture goodie bags, with an uber-geek raffle which includes the opportunity to be written in to Cory Doctorow's next book, or receive a signed keyboard from our patron Neil Gaiman. Danny O'Brien, who founded the ORG pledge, will be speaking.
And if you were wondering,The Open Rights Group is a new and fast-growing NGO focused on raising awareness of issues such as privacy, identity, data protection, access to knowledge and copyright reform.
All things that are likely to be dear to readers of these pages.
