stephenfry.com: don’t link here
April 24th, 2008 | Published in Doing it Wrong | 2 Comments
Stephen Fry (wikipedia entry) is a legendary entertainer with a lot to say. He’s been in the (mostly British) public eye for the last 25 years and has started podcasting his thoughts in what he calls “Stephen Fry’s Podgrams”. He’s eloquent, funny, succinct, and he doesn’t want me to link to his web site.
The terms of use of his web site, managed by The Sampsonian Co Pty Ltd (trading as Stewart and Sampson) and their licensors, specifically forbid me from creating a link to any part of his web site without express permission.
You can get to it from the Wikipedia link above, though. They’re not afraid to “break the law” in the name of creating a working Internet.
I’ve sent an e-mail to the Sampsonians, asking if they are serious about forbidding such free publicity. I’ll let you know how they respond.
