- What is it about French courts and American search companies? It wasn't that long ago that they were declaring Yahoo's CEO a war criminal because he wouldn't stop the American Yahoo site from selling old Nazi paraphernalia. Now, they've struck out at Google for the practice of letting people buy text ad keywords for trademarked terms. Google says they're going to appeal. What I find amusing about this is that Google, in the past, has shown that they have no problem banning trademarked keywords. |

- This Wired article by Thomas Goetz includes: Finding the roots of open source in Taylor and Smith is especially significant because the approach isn't, as some insist, anticommercial or anticorporate. Rather, it is a return to basic free-market principles. The open source process fosters competition, creativity, and enterprise.
