There’s a new and potentially game-changing technology for viewing files on the web. It’s called iPaper, from the people at the document-sharing website Scribd. The image below is a copy of my 2008 preview that was provided to subscribers of Wired GC - Select.
The technology is free, and I bet a few document-sharing application providers are gnashing their teeth right about now.
An audio explanation is located below this image (it’s multimedia Thursday at the Wired GC). The slider at the far right of this document allows you to scroll throught the four pages.
Just click on the red arrow to hear a short overview of iPaper and Scribd.

… someone stopped by the Wired GC family compound this morning. I take it as a sign to work less and celebrate more.
Merry Christmas to all…
And Rudolph recommends some music for your holiday listening pleasure…

“Publishing With Principle”
The printed word has come a long way since Gutenberg. The reach of “traditional” and “new” media is now worldwide and immediate. With these new technologies come new responsibilities. Some publishing companies and even individual bloggers have run afoul of laws in several jurisdictions.
In today’s audiocast, we talk to Charles J. Glasser Jr., media counsel with Bloomberg News and author and editor of the “International Libel and Privacy Handbook.” Its subtitle notes that it is intended as a “Global Reference for Journalists, Publishers, Webmasters, and Lawyers.”
Mr. Glasser also provides for listeners a glimpse into the life of a counsel to a leading media company and gives key insights into how to make compliance with law a reality in a business that really never closes its doors.
Today’s show is here (just click on the “mp3″ link):
mp3 (15:03 min; 3.4 mb)
Show Notes:
– Mr. Glasser’s book is available on the Bloomberg website, which contains biographical information as well.
– This book is also available on Amazon here.

“Legal Literacy for Business”
It seems like an almost daily occurence: you pick up a newspaper and read about a company that has a CEO, a board member, or even a GC under some ethical cloud. Once a matter has come to the attention of the public (and the regulators), a company is in damage control mode.
One way to guard against this is for corporate counsel to practice preventative law and educate managers in the business case for ethical conduct.
In today’s audiocast, we address this timely issue with Hanna Hasl-Kelchner, a corporate counsel and author of “The Business Guide to Legal Literacy.”
Today’s show is here (just click on the “mp3″ link):

– A link to Ms. Hasl-Kelchner’s book on Amazon. Buy it! It’s cheaper than litigation…
