From lawbreaking to love making, the spot highlights the depth of experience available through Bee.tv’s personalised content platforms, deftly delivered with a usual light touch and painterly eye for detail.

Pepsi Wants You Advertising
 Pepsi has a special deal for out of work journalists with an “open newsroom” experiment to widen its brand through increase social media participation. Offering a $750 stipend, the program is open to journalists, students, social media gadflies and anyone with a hankering to report using social media tools. PepsiCo has made a concerted push to align itself with social media. It was among the top sponsors at South by Southwest, a social media Woodstock held in April. Its efforts there included a Twitter visualizer that tracked sentiment from the event and a podcast area. It also hosted a “PepTrends” event, in which it moderated a conversation over Twitter about global trends. [ AdWeek ]
In Defense of Copyright Creativity
 “The genius of the framers in making this provision is that it allows for infinite adjustment. Congress is free to extend at will the term of copyright. It last did so in 1998, and should do so again, as far as it can throw. Would it not be just and fair for those who try to extract a living from the uncertain arts of writing and composing to be freed from a form of confiscation not visited upon anyone else? The answer is obvious, and transcends even justice. No good case exists for the inequality of real and intellectual property, because no good case can exist for treating with special disfavor the work of the spirit and the mind. [ Lessig ]
Google to Newspapers: “Block us” Media
 Well fine, if publishers don’t want their content crawled, they can easily tag their content with a “Robot” which blocks Google’s spiders from crawling and indexing their pages, says Google spokesman Gabriel Stricker in this interview. [ Beet.tv ]
