flash is very handy in preventing/making it harder for people to steal your webcontent.

Isn't that slightly illegal-ish? Or is there any legal action at all?

Like, you couldn't just create a band a call yourselves the Beatles and make hit records.

They probably picked the name without any knowledge of real Ozma, though I can't imagine they had it first, and it seems like they would have found out about our Ozma with some very slight online searching easy enough. Though I wonder what the legality of it is and if it is effected at all by their nationality.

I think they're fine as long as they don't try to release stuff in the US. If ozma had a big international record label behind them it would be a different story.

gloom-glaam · May 04, 2006, 01:10:16 pm

what happens if ozma releases in france

phatpubah · May 04, 2006, 02:36:29 pm

hahaha its flash

I like ozma · May 11, 2006, 03:34:13 pm

wow, ozma is a good band!

butterfly · May 11, 2006, 09:14:03 pm

actually, there is another band called ozma before 'this' ozma...

claydarcy · May 12, 2006, 03:31:06 am

Yeah, I think there're three at this point. All fans of Baum's work, I guess.

On the name debate - name clashes happen. Usually you just change the name you're known as to release records in the country that has the clash - it's why Suede are known as The London Suede in the US, and why the Raconteurs have had to come up with another name for when they release/play in Australia.

That's as may be, but it's also very handy in preventing/making it harder for people to VIEW your webcontent. I hate webdesigners that don't take into consideration the fact that not everyone has the latest PC, the flashiest plug-ins and the best browser. The idea of the web should be that information is available to all who want to view it, in whatever format. The emphasis should be on putting the content there, and then constructing a pretty design around it in a way that doesn't interfere with the raw information still being accessible. Or something.

The new site is up! And best of all, "American & Canadian tour dates to be announced soon!"

Kyosho · May 30, 2006, 06:48:30 pm

Hahahaha. I can't believe my chipmunk mp3 made the official site!

Er..that's me confessing, by the way.

Edit: Well, the mp3 library at least. Not exactly on the official site. But it's on Daniel's site, so, that counts somewhat.

Edit2: It seems all the pages are hosted on Daniel's site. Okay then. Back to official recognition! Woo. The thing took me like 10 seconds to make. But I love it.

Andy · May 30, 2006, 07:31:24 pm

Also cool of them to post up the repository

Sick, they put "Battlescars (chipmunks)" on their site.

antiuser · May 30, 2006, 11:34:30 pm

Damn, Ozma linked my site from theirs.

/// · June 01, 2006, 09:38:18 am

I like the design, though for me it's taking a long time to load...they also have a nice mp3 section

comments?

gloom-glaam · June 01, 2006, 02:33:36 pm

I love you

Seb · June 02, 2006, 05:20:55 am

It looks great... but that tiny content window compared with all the whitespace for navigation is really annoying when you're browsing at work in a smaller window so your colleagues don't see you're on the net instead of phoning up academics to ask them what they thought of books they got free copies of and if they're going to put them on reading lists for their courses starting later this year.

But that's a pretty specific complaint, I guess.

amish · June 02, 2006, 07:55:25 am

I'm sure the site is just temporary, and they will soon have a full-blown Flash website for us to "enjoy"

heysarahsarah · June 11, 2006, 12:23:30 pm

i'm sure bob mentioned it, but they link Bob's boots from the last shows we went to from off my webspace.

Kinda cool.
