web 2.0 boot camp from the electronic frontier foundation - EFF
From the EFF a seminar I am hoping will be recorded, edited and available on the web, for I can not afford the travel to make it out to Cali right now. It’s a great price for those who can make it, and the topics are important, with experts offering advice worth more than the price of travel and admission. If you are thinking about starting a social network or already have a site that harnesses user generated content check it out:
