I spent some time today chatting with Sam Bayard of the Citizen Media Law Project. It occurred to me that some of you who are newer to blogging might not know they have an invaluable database of articles on legal issues related to online publishing - a good resource to bookmark! (See, for example, "legal protections for anonymous speech".)

Thanks for pointing readers to a fabulous resource. I turned to the Citizen Media Law Project when I wanted to get a factual (i.e., not hysterical) read on the recently-launched FTC guidelines for product endorsements and testimonials as they affect bloggers. What's nice is that posts are updated regularly. Here's a good example and the right sidebar contains links to other posts therein on interpretation and requirements for disclosure statements for bloggers.
