CC seems to be a wonderful thing for people who write for pleasure or for ad-supported pages. But what about authors of novels or other works where they are supported only by sales?

I like the idea of reducing Copyright to a contract paradigm instead of a statutory one, but I think there needs to be a contractual commercial license to really attract authorship requiring a serious resource commitment.

What gets me sick is patent law.

What do you think of Creative Commons as the basis for distribution of music tracks? A French startup called Jamendo www.jamendo.com is giving it a try. I'd be interested to hear the VC point of view. Thanks, Valerie

Just a guess here, but I see the following evolution for for social networking:

v2.0: Eye balls and page views (all over again)
- "Does your portfolio have a social networking site?"
- "How many page views do you generate?"

v3.0: What can we sell
- Ran out of VC money
- Need to focus on making some so we can raise more
- Glad Google and PayPal exist

v4.0: Who's going to simplify
- Too many sites
- Too similiar functionality
- Who's going to aggregate and simplify?

Think travel search aggregation (SideStep, TravelZoo)
Think job posting aggregation (SimplyHired, Jobster)

v5.0: Whew.
- Fewer big sites
- Few focused sites
- Now that there's money in it, Google and Microsoft looking to eat our lunch

Then I end up on the basin to put some tap water.Start cleaning the vibram , I first ビブラム wet.Then, I use a scrub brush back and forth on the edge of the fivefingers .The edge of the shoe is still relatively easy to brush the mud, but the shoe side of the dirt is more difficult to wash away.They do not want hanging around is to move about the body.
