I picked up on an interesting post about attention data from Damien Mulley’s blog. Whilst writing a comment on his post, I realised it was turning into an epic. It presented me with an opportunity to talk about Segala’s Semantic Web Firefox Trust extension too, so I’ve decided to write here and link to Damien’s [...]

To help seed interest and gain mass adoption for Content Labels more quickly, we’ve decided to give our technology to other trust providers for free. This may sound a little weird but it’s not.

ICANN has voted against the introduction of a new domain called .xxx which would [...]

Paul has written a blog post about this also. Viacom, owner of Paramount, studios and MTV says that Google has breached its copyright [...]
