Recently I came across Barlow's Manifesto which was written by John Perry Barlow.
The manifesto was written as a direct criticism of the Communications Decency Act in 1996. Barlow and others saw this act as a threat to the "independence and sovereignty of cyberspace".
I find it a fascinating read as this was a time when the Internet was barely visible to most of society, yet John Barlow, (who was also a lyricist for the Grateful Dead), could see that any level of governance could have huge ramifications on the growth and scope of "the net". Barlow was clearly an early visionary of what cyberspace would become, and it's interesting how much of what he said back in 1996 is still relevant today.

If you ever fancied learning how to program, why not take a look over at Channel 9 where there is a series of "how to" videos dedicated to doing just this.
Most of the videos are by Bob Tabor from LearnVisualStudio.net which generally is a paid for resource, but Microsoft have obviously seen the value and quality of his training and have obviously sponsored him to create content for the Channel 9 website.
