I am an appellate lawyer with the firm Crosby, Heafey, Roach & May.* My experience and proficiency include partnership and contract law, as well as internet and intellectual property issues.** Though I am originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, I now live in Newport Beach. While at UCLA (B.A. 1987), I majored in English and earned departmental honors for a thesis on the works of T.S. Eliot. After college, my interests took a more South Campus turn. I began studying computers and technological issues while I earned my law degree from Boalt Hall in Berkeley (J.D. 1990). Today, when not drafting briefs - or reading or writing weblogs - I am likely to be scouring The Screen Savers show notes, something by clocke or a Mac OS X user guide. I am a past President and Board member of Commerical Real Estate Women of Orange County, and a member of the Council of Appellate Lawyers as well as the American, Orange County (Appellate Section) and Los Angeles County (Appellate Courts Committee) bar associations. My father is a lawyer turned author, whose work I will plug at any opportunity.

iRights is a weblog specifically covering the interaction of the law and the Internet. On a more-or-less daily basis, news stories are posted to the homepage and many have my commentary on them. I'm a technically inclined person and I try to analyze the news, point out whats stupid and what makes sense, with an eye towards keeping it all making sense for people who may not be technically inclined. Since reporters stopped researching their stories (assuming they can even understand the technology anyhow), a site of this nature has become useful.

I'm a 17 year old girl who's interested in Music and Freedom. Trouble is, these two don't go together anymore, as I can personally witness from what's happened to me and my website Madster.com (formerly Aimster). I'll post here everyday what's happening to me as I see it - how I see multi-national media interests use the legal system _everyday_ to their enormous advantage. But I'll also try to tell you how I see it as someone who's 17 and female, and who just happens to be caught up in it all. Disclaimer: Please note that my views expressed here are in no way representative of the views of my Dad (Johnny Deep), who is actually a party to the lawsuit.

Therefore, a "shifted librarian" is someone who is working to make libraries more portable. We're experimenting with new methods, even if we find out they don't work as well as we thought they would. Sometimes, we're waiting for our colleagues, our bosses, and even the kids to catch up, but we're still out there trying. And please don't think I don't love books and print, because I do. No amount of technology will ever replace them, and libraries will always be a haven for books. It's the extras that I'm concentrating on, especially as we try to serve our remote patrons.
