Discussion of Spaceshifting on Capitol Hill

Monday, October 22nd, 2007 by Patrick Ross

The good folks at the Association for Competitive Technology (ACT) are hosting a panel discussion Tuesday at noon on Capitol Hill in Rayburn B340. I call them good folks because I've known them for years and they in fact are good folks, but I say that in particular because they were kind enough to invite me to be on their panel discussion. The discussion will feature ACT's Morgan Reed and Debbie Rose, and the other panelist is Public Knowledge's Gigi Sohn, someone else I've known a long time (back to when she worked at Media Access Project). Oh, and lunch will be served.

Now with names like that combined with food, who cares what the topic is, right? Well, probably some of you do. ACT is calling it "Space Shifting: A New Frontier for Innovation and Cool Stuff…Or a Black Hole of Lawsuits?" I have some strong thoughts on that subject but I'll save them for the discussion. This should be good practice for me, though, as I'm speaking on a similar topic January 9th at the Consumer Electronics Show.

For those blog readers in Washington, hope to see you at Rayburn tomorrow!
