Explaining Creative Commons
September 18th, 2007On my way to Japan I was trying to explain creative commons to the person sitting next to me. My approach involved explaining the notion of “all rights reserved”, and then the licenses that CC offers. I think he got the idea, but it was convoluted and confusing.
Today, I was reading an editorial by Joi Ito (coincidently about recent events in Japan), and noticed how they explain CC: Creative Commons, a nonprofit group that develops flexible copyright arrangements.
That works too!
