Week 6 Thing #14

I have already discussed Technorati. I find it a little thick to wade through, but the information is helpful. I really enjoyed the non-Disney video on copyright! It reminded me of another video I found on the TED website. The video is entitled How Creativity is being Strangled by the Law. It's worth watching. I love the analogy of land owners owning the sky above their land!

I see you're busy with SuccessMaker. I felt the same way about Technorati - too much information. I have used it since finishing the tutorial, but for personal items/issues - reviews of certain programs or hardware.
I'll make sure I watch the video you referred to. It's great to be able to keep learning even after completing the tutorial.

Thanks for sharing both the video -- with a speaker from my alma mater :) -- and the TED site. The video was very interesting and well done and I added TED to my feeds. My first stop for graphics these days is Flickr, where I search for items with CC licenses so I can feel comfortable using the graphics. It is so frustrating when I find good graphics on other sites but don't feel free to use them.
