Speedlinks 05/23/07

Today's Speedlinks are interesting. Once I had someone who wanted to work for me, commuting via train and metro for 90 minutes each way, each day.

Link 2 is all about stock agencies who take public domain images, scan and retouch them, and add metadata, and then claim a copyright registration as a database contribution, or to the metadata. Not a very substantive basis, and built on a house of cards in my opinion.

  • Tenuous Copyright Claims - The Online Photographer comments on how Getty is claiming copyright to works they can't. (Hint: their contributions are deminimus, and thus not eligible!) Check it out!

Now go! Check 'em out, and come back soon!
