Will begins a great conversation about others grabbing his feed including ads to profit from his writing. I’ve had this happen on occasion but always viewed it as a compliment. Will thinks differently about it. The comments bring more complexity to the conversation. (including a Tom Hoffman zinger. BTW, is there a way to subscribe only to Tom’s comments?)
I don’t know what to think. There’s just too many smart people making great contributions.

    Tom’s great at zingers, but what’s his point? That a CC license allows this to happen? How does he come to that conclusion? Tom is avery smart human who I think misses opportunities to teach by choosing to use zingers instead of laying things out in ways that clearly articulate why he feels the way he does.

    Of course the CC license allows this to happen. The CC licenses exist for the purpose of allowing people to re-use and re-mix content. If that’s not the purpose of CC, what on Earth is?

    Also, I use zingers because I don’t have the time or inclination to write really long comments all the time. If I want to write something longer, I’ll do it on my blog.

    I think the manifestation of the CC license is indeed an interesting question. I was under the impression that non-commercial means others can’t profit from your stuff. Is that right Tom?

    I like Tom’s zingers because he reminds me of friend of mine who’s rather brash and usually adds a lot of zest and interest to get togethers. I don’t always agree but it sure is interesting. Not terribly verbose but colorful. We need both to have a good party.
