Truth In Music Act Passes Indiana House

Kudos to the Indiana House for passing the Truth In Music Act and sending it on to the Senate. It's hard enough for acts from this time to get the money they've earned or might have been owed, given the shady dealings many owners, managers, and label heads practiced. Having others appropriate their name now is just adding to the insult.

Besides the merits of the bill, I have to think the legislature was awed by the charm of Sha Na Na's Bowser, who's been lobbying across the country for similar acts. Who knew Chuck Taylors and a low voice could provide an entry into the world of politics?

Hearing good info on HTML5, including offline usage & storage. Wondering if we're ever really offline anymore, though. #stc12 13 hours ago
Loving when presenters confirm what we're doing with our documentation! #stc12 17 hours ago
I'll spare you folks what I'm learning about developer documentation right now - you'll like me better this way. But it's good stuff. #stc12 17 hours ago
