So, here I am writ­ing my lec­ture for tomor­row’s class. It’s on intel­lec­tual prop­erty and syn­dic­a­tion, so of course I’m push­ing funky stuff like Cre­at­ive Com­mons but I also have to cover the mundane detail. So, I’m research­ing. I headed on over to the Gov­ern­ment’s IP site to see if they had a basic fact sheet… and dis­covered that today is “World Intel­lec­tual Prop­erty Day”.

Very odd.
