  • Can you patent wisdom? - International rights get interesting: India is creating a high-tech catalogue of traditional knowledge to prevent foreign hucksters ‘pirating’ it.
  • Digg Surrenders to Mob - This isn’t a publishing story, but what follows is a lesson and/or warning for all those crowd-sourcing ideas out there.
  • “We hear you” - Kevin Rose, Digg founder, responds in pretty much the only way he could. He’s a good guy, though, I get the impression.
  • “Fish where the fish are” - Fionnuala Duggan, Director of Random House Group Digital, urges publishers to go look for readers out on the web.
