The Globe and Mail covers Friday's University of Ottawa's Centre for Law, Technology and Ethics launch conference. The event includes a keynote from Harvard Law School's Yochai Benkler, the author of a recent FCC-commissioned study on broadband networks worldwide. Benkler's conclusions on Canada have generated considerable discussion and should be a great way to start the day. The remainder of the day should also be great – panels on open government, the use of mapping technologies, and the privacy, gender and ethical implications of social networks such as Facebook. The conference includes lunch and a post-conference reception, all at no cost for students and a nomimal fee for everyone else. There is still time to register, so do so today!
