About the blog

TechnoLlama is the online persona of Andres Guadamuz, law lecturer at the University of Edinburgh. The blog covers several Cyberlaw topics, with emphasis on open licensing, digital rights, software protection, virtual worlds, and llamas. While the blog tackles these issues in a light-hearted and nonchalant manner, some serious points filter through from time to time.
