Tonight and tomorrow I'll be mind-moshing with local geekerati at Barcamp Vancouver. If you're signed up to be there too, come up and innerdooce yourself (you already know me by sight, or can figure it out via flickr or facebook, can't you?). I always like to meet readers and fellow ...

There's some great news in Future of Music Coalition's latest newsletter about Clear Channel's treatment of independent musicians. In just ten short days of campaigning (including blogging, negotiating with the radio giant directly, and filing a Request for a Declaratory Ruling at the FCC) the organization (with help from A2IM) ...
