Aww, Facebook _is_ good for something!
One of my FB friends (a good friend from law school) just sent me a message doing a (rather hilarious) joint introduction between me ('hot-shit copyright lawyer at X(place of work)') another woman ('hot-shit trademark lawyer at Y(place of work)'). The TM lawyer is doing a talk on copyright & TM issues with a group of young adults making a creative product.
She was all, "Twilight?"
And I was like "Twilight!, but also, Nintendo!"
And I was also like "And ask them questions about fairness and institutional power because boy howdy do teenagers engage more deeply with complex material if you trigger their "how does this affect me & my friends?" mode."
And she was like, "Right on!"
And it was pretty cool. Wish I could go to her talk, but half a continent is in the way.
