Rostyslav, I said “using open source software for over 10″ and “publishing for over 20 years” I meant publishing in general… not publishing software. (I used to publish print magazines.)

Hmm, you have been using for 10 years, creating for 20. Doesnt it normally go the other way around?

I like the referrer grease monkey plugin for notification reasons on Flickr. I use it with UrbanMilwaukee.com, blog it, then click back through to the photo and the originating URL is included in your comment. Drop in a little “thanks for licensing, used your photo” line and you’re done!

Maybe we need an attribution best practices 10 minute session at Web414? I’m sure someone like Gabe must have something amusing.

Chris, I always appreciate when people let me know they used my work, and I will try to make it a habit to better inform people in the future. Thanks again for use of the photo.

It is always a thrill to find my photos posted somewhere. I do wish that Creative Commons mandated notification (and not just attribution) so that it would be easier to find out when photos or articles get used in various places.

Great article, btw.

Great Post, well put. I came to the same conclusion last week and my life is better for it!
