Housekeeping: Moving House (Change Your Feeds)

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

FeederA short note, this blog is moving to its own domain: http://www.technologylawculture.com. So, it’s time for a housewarming party, and you’re invited: please update your feedreader to point to http://www.technologylawculture.com/feed.

It is possible that your feed reader will re-list older posts, it’s what mine did. My apologies for that.

If you’re subscribed through Feedburner, no need to do anything, just kick back and relax.

See you in August!

Housekeeping: TLC on Extended Hiatus

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

HiatusTechnology Law Culture (Netherlands!) is going on extended hiatus for the coming six months. I have come to this decision seeing how recently I have not been able to give TLC — and by extension you, the reader — the care and attention (dare I say, the TLC?) it deserves.

Consequently, I am going to put this blog on extended hiatus for the coming six months. That’s right, six months. Technology Law Culture (Netherlands!) will be back — with more “Nerdfighter Power” — in August 2008.

Until then, may I point you to some of the many fine blogs in this blog’s blogroll: Video Game Law Blog; Internetrecht: actualiteiten en commentaar (in Dutch); Singularity; New Media Law; and The Law Factor (in Dutch)?

See you in August,
Olivier Oosterbaan

This short post is to inform you why there was no post on Technology Law Culture (Netherlands!) last month, why there is no post this month, and why it is possible that there will be no post next month either.

Although I am a little hesitant to share this personal information, I care to let you know that the reason why I took a break and am taking a break from posting is […] [redacted post-post, for privacy.]

I hope to return to […] [posting] shortly. In the meantime, time for a reader survey. If you subscribe to this blog’s feed, I would greatly appreciate to hear from you and hear what you do and don’t like about this blog. Please bear with me if I do not respond immediately.

It shows who shares his or her Internet connection for free, in return for free access to the connections of others who also share their connection. My FON router is the little green star. Thanks to FON, I was able to connect after moving, when my router was still packed deep down in moving boxes, for bare minimum communications. I love it.
