Ever thought about using Creative Commons for your podcast or blog? Never thought about using Creative Commons? No matter what your feelings about copyright and intellectual property, this talk is for you.

This talk will cover a variety of topics including:

• Why would I license my content under Creative Commons?
• How do I find CC content?
• Can I make money while using CC?
• What does CC mean for nonprofit journalism?
• Why does copyright matter?
• What is fair use?
• How do I correctly attribute under CC?
