Today Claudia, Diana, Ridzuan, U-Zyn and I were at Joi Ito’s talk on consumer web focus where Joi shares his views on start up financing, geekdom and Creative Commons. And after a short discussion 3 entries back, U-Zyn and I decided to advance our level of internet geekiness by releasing our opinion on this blog under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Singapore license.

I have no idea… Hmm, but how about putting all content to public domain, what do you think?

Public domain meaning no rights reserved?

Hmm… I guess I don’t really know how copyrights work. We could put all blog posts into some rights reserved (non-commercial, attribution) and all comments can go to public domain (no rights reserved). Blog posts that include citations, blockquotes etc should be fine, covered under fair use.

Then I guess we can just go under CC directly. :) Just choose the appropriate CC-licensed.
Personally, I would just go for the lowest CC license, attribution only. I don’t care much if people are selling my work.

Sure. I would be fine even if it’s no rights reserved, haha… I declared public domain for the chat thing if you noticed the copyright. ;)
