Looking at Rentul, my first impression was that it took too many clicks to get to a listing. I clicked on Breckenridge Colorado and was given a page that said "here are what we found in breckenridge." I didn't realize at first that I had to

I disagree that it is really sustainable on an industry wide scale. Who pays the salaries of the free helpers so that they have the free time to contribute?

I'm curious who your employer is and what your response would be if the parent said "What happens if nobody pays for a copy of <your company's most profitable product>?"

Ok I see the difference. I'll answer more to your point. When a person creates a work, they have a right to decide how that work is given to others. They can leave it in their closet. They can sell a couple copies to friends. They can give

"Clearly, people think it is their choice." And that is where the author disagrees. People think it is their choice to either pay or not pay and get for free without consequences. That is wrong. If you choose to download without paying, yo

It isn't exactly the most popular option for a lot of reasons, but one possibility is going on an income based repayment plan for as much of the debt as you can. The debt sticks around for 25 years but it allows you not to worry about not h

SOPA doesn't fight cybercrime! It attempted to allow US authorities to block access to people who provided counterfeit or unlicensed copywritten work. That's all.

I'm not affiliated with IDS at all, I just like their interface much more than any other domain name search tool I've ever tried including the OP. Yes IDS is a GoDaddy affiliate marketer but that doesn't mean I can't use their search functi

Naked domains as in "example.com" without the www? Just name your bucket without the www and it will work. You can then do a javascript redirect from a simple index page at www.example.com (google has said that they now follow javascript re

What you describe would be orders of magnitude better than the current bill. That is how most court cases in the US today are run. I accuse you, the court issues a sopena for you (which you must receive), if you don't show up, you automatic

This still doesn't fix the problems with selective enforcement or give accused infringers the opportunity to face their accusers in court. These are much bigger problems than any of the DNS provisions.

In my opinion the issues stem mostly from how violations are determined. Basically in the current wording, a rightsholder would go to the US Department of Justice (I think) and put in a complaint stating that "website X has unauthorized cop

SOPA explicitly does not have the power to silence sites based in the US. This is because the DCMA already applies to those sites. So SOPA won't block facebook, or youtube, or google, or any other US based site. The problem occurs when a si

Our wedding photographer gave us a DVD with everything and an explicit release to do anything we wanted with them. She was very forward thinking and she seemed to be doing very well for herself.

Good read. My wife actually quit as a teacher in DC (mostly b/c of Teach for America but that is a different story) and started tutoring. It took her about 6 months to get set up with a good reliable set of clients. She was able to charge a

You read the graph wrong. Finland, Australia, Korea, Japan and New Zealand get better results for the same amount of pay. The farther above the line in their graph, the better the relative performance of the teachers given their income and
