Creative Common Salon: Content Distribution for Nonprofits - Jun 14, 6-9pm

Okay, so the headline of this post isn't entirely accurate. The next Creative Commons Salon isn't going to be all about content distribution for nonprofits -- that's just a five minute talk I'm going to be giving (from the perspective of TechSoup's experiences adopting a Creative Commons licensing policy.) The rest of it will be about all sorts of other cool stuff, so you should show up. Here's the deal:

Wednesday, June 14 in San Francisco: CC Salon

CMP Demands That Nonprofit Cease and Desist From Using "Web 2.0" in Conference Name

In case you didn't already see the news on Slashdot this morning, tech publisher CMP Media has sent a cease and desist letter to nonprofit networking group IT@Cork, claiming that the group is infringing on what CMP sees as its exclusive right to use the term "Web 2.0" in a conference name.

O’Reilly trademarks “Web 2.0″ and sets lawyers on IT@Cork!

google + creative commons + techsoup = wholesome goodness

Thought you all might be interested to know that all Creative Commons content published on TechSoup and ConsultantCommons is being index by Google -- which means our nonprofit friends can easily search our sites for articles they can republish.

To use the search, start here: http://creativecommons.org/find/ Limit your search to a specific site by using the "site:techsoup.org" qualifier in your search query, like so:

site:techsoup.org blogging

site:techsoup.org interplast

site:techsoup.org security

You get back a list of articles relating to those topics, all of which nonprofits can reuse in their training materials, reprint on their Web sites, use in presentations, etc., etc. Have fun, do good!
