Juliette is an all round web-consultant and developer. Having started with client-side web development in 2000, she furtively tried to avoid server-side web until she was forced to learn PHP at knife-point in 2002 and found herself hooked quite quickly. As she herself would put it 'It is more fun than Sudoku, and just as challenging to get it right'. She has actively contributed to a number of open source projects and published several articles and php-classes.

Anne Helmond is a New Media PhD candidate at the Mediastudies department at the University of Amsterdam where she studied New Media from 2004-2008. She graduated cum laude with a thesis on ‘Blogging for Engines. Blogs under the Influence of Software-Engine Relations.’ This research on the symbiotic relationship between blog software and search engines contributes to the existing research on blogs and blogging by framing it from a software-engine perspective and describing a different role of the blogger in this relationship.

In the middle of 1995, I got involved with civil rights issues on the net on a rather personal level: Scientology raided my provider, XS4all, over a homepage that one of their other customers had put on-line. That raid brought about a whole cascade of questions: are homepages the responsibility of their makers, or of those through which systems they are served? Are internet providers to be regarded as publishers, or as common carriers? Is a complaint enough on the net to make a provider pull a page? How does censorship on the net work?
