With a bad Barton bill up for discussion tomorrow, and a worse DMCA expansion under consideration, all I can do is feebly point out that the internet is doing rather well without any particular help from either the prioritizing telcos or the entrepreneurial law enforcement community.

The BBC is becoming MySpace -- that's the tagline, according to the Media Guardian, but the bigger story is Mainstream Media (Well-Funded) Takes the Intelligent Plunge.  (It helps to have a license fee in your country supporting you.) 

The BBC is putting everything online, huge amounts of content, and encouraging users to mash it up, build blogs on their site, go to Web 2.0 town -- nirvana for user-created content.  The BBC is going the right direction, understanding that big media can't be authoritative any more, but also understanding that the filter/visualization/prioritization efforts the company provides will make a huge difference to users. 

BBC's site is already enormously popular.  Now it will be home -- not just a place to visit.
