Creative Commons

Creative Types: A Lot in Common
Quote: "...many artists are turning to the Web to maximize exposure, yet retain some control over their work. McGuinn is just one of the artists who will publish works under a new set of licenses that offer an alternative to conventional copyright."
Comment: Introduces Creative Commons. An excellent attempt to create a content model for the Internet. Various licenses can be assigned to author/artists work, including: attribution, no commercial, share-alike, no derivative works, etc. This could be significant if it receives the adoption it deserves.
