The Berkman Center for Internet and Society is a department of Harvard Law School, which focuses on the legal study of cyberspace. The Center sponsors conferences, visiting lecturers, and residential fellows. Members of the Center do research and write books, articles, weblogs with RSS 2.0 feeds, for which the Center holds the specification, and podcasts, of which the first series took place at the Berkman Center. The Center's headquarters is a small Victorian wood-frame building next to the bigger brick-and-stone Harvard Law School buildings. Its newsletter, "The Filter", is on the Web and available by e-mail, and it hosts a blog community of Harvard faculty, students and Berkman Center affiliates. The Berkman Center is funding the Openlaw project, and is a co-founder of the OpenNet Initiative.

Fellows have included David Weinberger, Ethan Zuckerman, Dave Winer, Jimbo Wales, Rebecca MacKinnon, John Perry Barlow, Wendy Seltzer, and Dr. James F. Moore.

Faculty have included Charles Nesson, Lawrence Lessig, Jonathan Zittrain, William "Terry" Fisher, and John Palfrey.
