The High Tech Law Institute at Santa Clara University School of Law and the Institute for Information Law and Policy at New York Law School are pleased to announce a new annual work-in-progress series for Internet law scholarship. We hope the series will provide a gathering place for Internet law scholars as well as a forum for Internet law scholars to get feedback on their scholarly projects at an early stage of their research. The first annual event will be held at Santa Clara University on March 5, 2011. We will send a request for submissions later in the year. We are still developing the event’s format, and we welcome your input about what type of structure will be most useful for your research.
In conjunction with the work-in-progress event, on March 4, 2011, Santa Clara University will host an academic symposium celebrating the 15 year anniversary of 47 USC 230 [”private blocking and screening of offensive material”]. The symposium will feature some of the key historical players, including Ken Zeran as a keynote speaker, as well as some of the latest research about the statute. If you are currently doing research on 47 USC 230, please contact me.
Regards, Eric.

The Ubiquitous Learning Conference will be held at the University of British Columbia, Dec. 10-11, 2010.
The Ubiquitous Learning Conference investigates the uses of technologies in learning, including devices with sophisticated computing and networking capacities which are now pervasively part of our everyday lives, from laptops to mobile phones, games, digital music players, personal digital assistants and cameras. The Conference explores the possibilities of new forms of learning using these devices not only in the classroom, but in a wider range of places and times than was conventionally the case for education.
The call for papers deadline is May 13, 2010. Papers (including some from people who do not attend the conference) may be published in Ubiquitous Learning: An International Journal. mw

GikII V, The Voyage Home will take place June 28-29, 2010, in Edinburgh. The call for papers deadline is April 15, 2010.
GikII is a workshop concerned with exploring the legal interaction between popular culture, speculative fiction, and new technologies. It has been described unimaginatively as trail-blazing, innovative, fun and informative. We like to think of GikII as the legal workshop equivalent of a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster, in other words, it is “like having your brain smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick”. GikII is where the bravest, fun-est (not to be confused with funniest) and zaniest ideas about law and technologies are discussed. In some instances we explore technologies so new that in fact there is not even a term to describe them, while some other times we have discussed technologies long gone. We only ask that you are imaginative and think of your fellow travellers instead of yourself. GikII is all about giving legal scholars the opportunity to engage in blue skies thinking (variations of the visible electromagnetic radiation spectrum may occur depending on which planet you may currently inhabit). If you have a paper that is languishing at the bottom of your hard drive and is crying out to see the light of a USB stick, GikII is the place for you. We laugh in the face of tradition and make rude comments about scholarly convention.
