A quick FAQ on copyright infringement: what’s allowed and what is not.
And, as a reminder, if you’re using Creative Commons, you may be giving away some of your copyright rights.
Nothing can keep someone from taking your content, but the more you know, the better prepared you can be if it happens to you.

I use copyscape and have a creative commons (the one with the most restrictions) on my blog and I often wonder if I’m contradicting myself. Basically, I don’t want someone using my content — any part of it — without crediting me.
(C)reators is a new service that retains all (or some) rights and ensures attribution, while making it easy for users to get permission or buy a license.
I was wondering about using photos on my blog. I am new to blooging and i see lots of blogs with pictures from magazines and links to books they love. Do you need the publishers permission, say if you are posting about a favourite book and want to link to it on amazon?
