Wikipedia
04/07/2005 10:40 AMYahoo! Search will be dedicating hardware and resources to support
Wikipedia, a community based encyclopedia written and edited by people
from around the world.
Wikipedia content will become available to hundreds of millions of
users worldwide through Yahoo! Search via shortcuts that are
automatically displayed above the relevant search results in the U.S.,
select European, Asian, and Latin American properties over the next
several weeks.
Yahoo!’s contribution is said to be the most significant dedication
made to date to the Wikimedia Foundation by a corporate sponsor.
"Yahoo! Search's support and vast user base will provide critical
material aid and global reach for Wikipedia," said Jimmy Wales,
founder of Wikimedia Foundation. "Yahoo! has been Wikipedia's
longest-standing corporate supporter and with this dedication of
resources we will be able to offer Wikipedia content to a growing
worldwide audience, while maintaining full flexibility in our ability
to expand relationships and freely distribute our works."

Creative Commons search
09/05/2004 01:21 PMConnecting two projects together - teh Creative Commons has put
into beta a servcie which uses the open source spider/search engine -
named Nutch. I believe Gordon Mohr works on that.
Here's the
post from John Batelle.....
Doug Cutting reminds me that his Nutch open
source engine is powering a beta
version of Creative Commons search. This is a great example of a
domain specific search application, in this case, the engine crawls
and indexes all CC licensed sites and lets you find stuff by how you
might want to use it. As Doug points out, there's no way the Creative
Commons could have built an engine like this had it not been for open
source. Cool....

Yahoo! Search for Creative Commons
03/24/2005 04:31 AMSix months ago we noted that one
could use Yahoo! link: searches to find Creative Commons
licensed content out of 4.7 million indexed pages that linked to a
Creative Commons license at that time.
Last month we mentioned that
the Yahoo! search index contained over 10 million pages that link to a
Creative Commons license.
Now we're very happy that Yahoo! has built a Creative
Commons search interface. As with our own search engine, you can
limit results to works you can use commercially or that you can build
upon or both.
We've added a box to our search engine's results page that allows
you to easily try a similar search at Yahoo! -- try out this search for 'shark'.
For developers, Yahoo! has added a license parameter to their Web Search
API.
Read more on the Yahoo! Search blog, where the announcement of
Yahoo! Search for Creative Commons features an inspiring guest
post from Creative Commons chairperson Lawrence Lessig.

05/26/2004 06:16 PMDigital Lifestyles is reporting that Larry Lessig has been named to a
BBC advisory board and that the BBC's Creative Archive project (which
aims to put the BBC's archives online for non-commercial re-use) will
use Creative Commons licenses:
Professor Lawrence Lessig, chair of the Creative Commons project was
clearly excited: "The announcement by the BBC of its intent to develop
a Creative Archive has been the single most important event in getting
people to understand the potential for digital creativity, and to see
how such potential actually supports artists and artistic creativity."
He went to enthuse "If the vision proves a reality, Britain will
become a centre for digital creativity, and will drive the many
markets – in broadband deployment and technology – that
digital creativity will support."

Creative Commons and The Plains
Creative Commons and The Plains
08/06/2004 05:00 PMThere's a been good discussion about music and Creative Commons
licenses happening on the pho
list the last day or so. The most novel post comes from Jim Griffin:
Here's an example from my new reality: In our neighborhood (The
Plains, VA,
population 266) and in our region there are many people who adopt for
their
land a conservation easement, essentially signing away (sometimes with
certain modifications) their right and any future owner's right to
develop
the land outside some fairly restrictive parameters.
On a strictly financial basis, it makes little sense. The dramatic
reduction
in the land's value does bring lower property taxes, but this pales by
comparison to the lost right to develop the land. And make no mistake
about
it: The Washington area sprawls, especially so with the restriction on
the
height of buildings in the city. Northern Virginia is a hotbed of real
estate development, and plots of land of 30 or more acres go for a
massive
premium to builders ready to sell about 40 houses per acre. It is the
OBS,
the One Big Score, rivaling a hit album, or a string of them, in the
financial payday it delivers.
Put simply, you'd be an irresponsible fiduciary to adopt a
conservation
easement on your land.
On the other hand, it is not uncommon for an owner to choose to do
so.
Why?
They have a long-term perspective on their role in the community.
They know
they at most use the land during their lifetime, and they want to
preserve
its place in the "commons" that surround us.
The move to The Plains has been a journey from ME to WE, from the
ego-sphere
of Hollywood to the community grain silo, the volunteer fire
department and
a wave of the hand to and from the neighbors who share this valley. I
can't
remember my neighbors in Los Angeles; already I cannot forget those
who
share this place between the mountains.
So I guess I get the Creative Commons. Or I hope to. Or there is
hope that I
might, and that some of it may rub off on our son. And as I write
this, as
the fading twilight of The Plains reflects off the pond, Creative
Commons
makes sense. These songs, like this land, are ours for a time, and
there
comes a time we should pass them on to the community.
The Creative Commons story has many altruistic and pragmatic
readings. Jim's story above adds one of the former. In the same
thread Lucas Gonze adds an insightful
rendition of the latter:
My own perspective on CC is that it doesn't matter whether licenses
declare that files are redistributable or anything else in particular.
What matters is that there is legal metadata.
A big part of the current impasse is caused by the need to automate
clearances. We need to be able to write programs which look up
rights, or at the least have a computer assisted method for looking
them up by hand.
About the plains, conservationism and altruism, I personally don't
see open media (or code) that way. Making your media more open gives
you certain practical benefits, and if it isn't the selfish thing to
do then you shouldn't do it.
Either, or, neither? Make up your own story. Keep those ideas
around for the next contest. (None planned at the moment!)
