Copyrights issue

This post refers to copyrights issue of our blogs

There is really interesting discussion and lesson between Rille and Fredrik on aedbe blog. Copyrights are always problematic. In my blog I tried always thinking about copyrights. Now I am even lost what is copyright violation and what is not...

Not-mine thought or texts

• Of course there are not-mine materials on my blog but their are marked and always linked to the source. Well, I usually tired to write italic what I have pasted on my blog. Always there is a link to the source I have copied-pasted
• Sometimes like on the post The end of the books? I just said stright "This text is taken from the The end of the books? article published in The Guardian" - hope it is enough not to violate copyrights (but I didn't check if Creative Commons
  license is enough to Guardian, I hope it is enough)
• I used one image that is found at google image search without giving a credit... I've corrected it. I will make my own image in Gimp.

Copyright management

Copyrights management is very important in publishing/e-learning business. There are thousands of images, texts, quotations, lyrics that are copyrighted. You need to use a computer systems that calculates number of copied printed/sold or number of used images. It is quite complicated when you use for example quantity-license rather then time-license. (you e.g. may have permission to use an image 100 000 times and it maybe used in many textbooks and in many releases). Such system must calculate each use of the image in all books you have published!

Internet is full of information. Some of them are for free but some other... copyrighted. Personally, I like much more free content but we must take assumption that all is copyrighted (unless marked).
