A guy I know, Josh Wolf, was just thrown in jail for refusing to hand over some videotapes he made of a July 2005 demonstration in San Francisco. The San Francisco Chronicle has the details.

The government has scary powers and is using them. Interesting to watch this case evolve and see how Josh is using his blog to get word out to his friends. Josh, on his blog, writes that he is planning to appeal this case all the way. That’ll cost $10,000 to $15,000 in legal fees. Whew.

This is scary. Head on over and do what you can.

This release includes a raft of enhancements, including better documentation for plug-in developers, slightly modified tag behavior that makes it easier to navigate your extensiv feed collection, experimental plug-ins for automatically publishing entries to WordPress, TypePad, Blogger and Del.icio.us accounts, and minor usability improvements too numerous to mention.

This BETA version has been extensively tested, and is recommended for most users. (1 comments)

Hell yeah I did. So where have I been? Don’t you worry about it, I’ve been where most of us have been.

So this Reblog post you just saw. Don’t worry about that either, it was just a test. But if you’re curious I’m sure you can figure out part of what I’m up to. But I’ve got something more up my sleeve. I’ll be testing on this blog so you should start to see some results, some clues.
