Press Release Body = Ottawa, November 14, 2006 - One of Canada's leading experts in
Internet, e-commerce and copyright law, Dr. Michael Geist, has joined MediaMiser
Ltd.'s board of advisors.
Dr. Geist is the Canada Research Chair of Internet and E-commerce Law at the
University of Ottawa. He also writes a weekly newspaper column called Law Bytes, and
hosts a widely read blog (www.michaelgeist.ca).
"We're extremely pleased to have one of Canada's most influential and respected law
professors on our board of advisors," says Chris Morrison, vice president of client
services and co-founder of MediaMiser. "Dr. Geist offers much more than his
visionary guidance on legal issues involving web-based technologies-he is also very
much an entrepreneur who understands what it takes for a company to break through
and make itself heard."
As a member of MediaMiser's advisory board, Dr. Geist will offer insight on the
ever-changing Internet legal landscape. In addition, as a prominent blogger,
journalist and news aficionado, Dr. Geist is very in tune with MediaMiser's desire
to build leading news aggregation and media analysis solutions.
"I was immediately impressed with MediaMiser's unique technology and how its
software solutions could intuitively analyze the news, all in real-time," says Dr.
Michael Geist. "I'm looking forward to working with this innovative company as it
manoeuvres through the often confusing and changing rules related to technology and
the Internet."
Dr. Michael Geist has written numerous academic articles and government reports,
and appears regularly as a columnist on technology law for newspapers around the
world. He has been recognized with several important awards and grants and a major
research grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada
for work on Internet jurisdiction and copyright law. His full biography can be
found on his website at www.michaelgeist.ca.
