Sam Wilson's Journal

This is the complete archive for the Duplication of content tag. [Show full posts]

I have been reading Lessig’s Free Culture, specifically about the four different types of content-sharing that he identifies on p2p networks: sharing content that the user would otherwise buy (bad); sharing content as a precursor to buying it (good); sharing unavailable content (good); and sharing freely-available content (good; and the preceeding three were all about [...]

A car-free web geek, recording this and that in the digital memex, mapping and cycling in Fremantle, striving for a bit of simplicity, and now and then building bits of wooden furniture by hand.

Exploring
I like to go for rambling, aimless walks, though bush or suburbs, and sometimes I post here the words and pictures (and GPS traces) that I collect on these walks.

Open content
I edit on various Wikimedia projects and other wikis, and occasionally post here about whatever I'm working on. I am usually [[User:Samwilson]] on all projects.

Programming
I am a computer programmer by trade, working for a small company in South Fremantle. I contribute to a few little open source projects (plugins for WordPress, Dokuwiki, a few scripts for interacting with wikis around the place, etc.). I write about these things here when I can, working things out, announcing updates, musing on how things ought to be done...

Reading
'Reading' in the broad sense, but usually to do with texts that are made of text.

Status updates
Tweets, dents, Facebook statuses... from wherever they come, this category is the final and complete archive of them all.

Woodworking
This blog began as a way for me to document my workshop practice when I was at the ANU school of art in Canberra. Now my life has moved away from working at the bench, but I still post about the small projects that I do get to work on, and the joy that I find in working wood by hand.
