EFF Legal Guide for Bloggers (in mobile formats!)

hacker · 06-14-2005, 11:44 AM

Thanks to a note from Alexander.. I've taken the EFF's Legal Guide for Bloggers and hand-transcoded it into Plucker and iSilo formats. This is not simply a conversion of their online version, lots of pages were added, split up and other usability elements were added (you can see this in the screenshots below). The physical content remains identical, it was just reorganized and restructured for PDA display on smaller screen devices.

All of the internal links work, and external links are not included but are kept visible in the document (many link to pdfs and very large websites). This means you can cut-n-paste the "offsite" links and read them on your own, without having to have a monstrous document on your PDA.

Please take the time to read this document in full and share it with everyone you know that cares about blogging and the legal implications of blogging.

Please don't forget to Support the EFF and their efforts! They've done an outstanding job on many fronts (including defending us against several companies violating the license of Plucker).

Enjoy everyone!

I will sure download and read myself, I think I need to educate myself on the law implications of blogging.

Thanks for doing this, hacker. I've checked it out and it is a very useful article made more so by the interactivity within iSilo. Usually I don't include the unresolved links, but this time it works because it gives us the road map to whateverr outside links or .PDF's we might want to check out.

Thanks again.

A must read for every blogger! David, you do a great job custom converting websites. I wish more people had your gift to share it with us...

I think this would be a perfect for an iPod note format. I keep it with me all the time, and this would fit nicely next to WesternCiv CSS guide. Actually, being able to call "bullsh*t" and having the facts with you is a good thing indeed...

Very nice. It has replaced the messy quick iSiloX clip I did previously. Thanks!

Many thanks for the info. At my job there are some wanting to do blogs for different gov't functions, and having this resource is a great help.
