  Good for you. I’ve had that for months — click the disclaimer link in my top navbar.

  I’ve never understood copywright on the web–when anything can be “copied” anyway.

  I guess the cons are that someone else could sell one’s work in an ebook and should one wish to do the same you’d have immediate rivals in the market. But, I guess or this kind of blog it’s probably irrelevant.

  But that’s already happening with BlogBurst. Sort of.

  Blogburst and the others…

  I had no idea that blog posts were copywrited in the first place. There is way too much to learn with technology on the web.

  @Wes Are you kidding? Everything one might use a creative process to make is automatically the copyright of the author, unless a prior contract exists with someone who may have commissioned said work. Therefore, it is usually the creator of the work or the commissioning person’s right to uncopyright the work no one else’s. You are under law not allowed to simply copy and use someone else’s work without permission. Now that Sciencetext is under a Creative Commons license that provides the permission for anyone else to use the posts within certain licensing limitations (see the license for more details).

  Of course, all of this makes the perhaps rather arrogant assumption that anyone would actually want to re-use my words…
