Task 8: Creative Commons


I found this to be an interesting task. It's hard to find anything that is truly unique and genuinely doesn't take inspiration from any other source--seriously. So I think Creative Commons is a really good idea. To be able to use and build upon someone else's work without having to worry about being sued is a good thing.

If I, or a patron, needed a generic picture of, say, a bassoon, I could just use Creative Commons to find a picture that is okay to use (since I don't have a bassoon and wouldn't be able to take my own picture of said bassoon).
I hope no one minds that my picture is so big. I found it using Google Images on Creative commons, but then I had to go to normal Google Images to be able to get the url for it so I could share it with you all. I think Creative Commons is really neat. Yay! Now we can safely use the internet as a source from which to build upon.
