Fish on fire!

Scott at Imperator Fish has been on fire this week. Fresh from his comprehensive victory over Martyn Bradbury (the poor man's Wolfie Smith), he's been doing some thinking; check this out:

Some Internet Laws You May Have Missed - Updated
Most people know about about Godwin's Law. In short (quoting Wikipedia), this adage states: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1."

Here are a few other internet forum laws with particular relevance to the New Zealand scene.

Now because Scott's a lawyer, and because he has expertise in Intellectual Property, and because we don't want to be on the wrong end of a lawyer's letter, we won't plagarise any of his Internet Laws. We simply suggest that you go over to Imperator Fish, and have a read for yourself.

We will make one suggestion however; if you've got a cup of tea or coffee in hand, put it down first, because hot drinks and keyboards don't mix when mirth is added to the mixture!
