fair

to be fair to the managers of the domain where i had my old blog, i removed some parts of my previous post ("why i moved out"). but it did really happen - i signed out, closed the window, re-opened the site and the article was there. let's just forget it because i assure you, i'm NOT suing anybody for the glitch.
also, i stand by what i said earlier that although i recognize their right to make improvements, it was really annoying when the whole damn blog was overhauled without my permission.

why i moved out

i once co-authored an article which was published in the phil law journal about electronic evidence. one of the examples that was used in that article was how martha stuart got burned because of the emails that she sent her daughter regarding her alleged (ay hindi na pala alleged because she was convicted) acts constituting insider trading.
yesterday, i freaked out because ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- but i went nuts for a few minutes.
apparently, they are updating everyone's account. my account went haywire. aside from the glitch on the draft, they removed the cute little picture (header image) which was one of the reasons why i stayed there. oh, and they also added some stuff to accommodate "my space," "flckr," etc (which, in my humble opinion, cluttered the whole thing - people write to express and not to impress). wrote the management about it; asked them if it's possible to revert to my old blog settings.
i didn't bother to attend the blog fora which were conducted in the college of law. not sure about the legal implications of what happened - changing one's account/settings without that person's consent (which leads one to ask about the nature of a blog account - what rights do the writers or the management of a domain have? ownership? if so, who is the owner? co-ownership?) and can somebody be held liable for an article which was inadvertently published, even if the publication was without that author's consent? maybe my blockmates can help me answer these questions :)
anyway, this is my new home. hope tessa can help me make some improvements :)
