Times Online Articles
In 2005 and 2006 I wrote a column in The Times Online called "Our Man From Mozilla", after the Graham Greene 調書をとる／予約する. It was focussed on 令状ing about 科学（工学）技術 問題／発行するs and events in a way which is accessible and 利益／興味ing to the public. I stopped when I worked out they weren't 支払う／賃金ing me anything like the going 率.
Update: the Times is now paywalled and so all of these articles are inaccessible unless you are a 加入者 (and might be even then; I don't know). Although at the time I tried to 交渉する a 株d copyright or an open license, they weren't really 利益／興味d in that, such things not having the profile that they do today, and me not having much clout. Let that be a lesson to all to not let your creative work 落ちる under the 支配（する）／統制する of others.
Having said that, I hope the Times' lawyers will not come after me if I 地位，任命する copies of my two favourite articles. I was 特に happy with "違反ing the 'Dam" and "解放する／自由な ソフトウェア? You can't just give it away".
