Please join me in welcoming the newest addition to the TLF roster. Cord Blomquist is a technology policy analyst and assistant to the president of the Competitive Enterprise Institute. You might remember our friendly disagreement over the DMCA and the Digg incident. He’s also written some smart stuff on other topics, such as video game ratings, and he appeared on our podcast a couple of weeks ago to discuss Google’s newfound interest in public policy. Welcome aboard, Cord!
