Finding Free Content in the Creative Commons

Looking for photos, music, text, books and other content that's free to share or modify for your own purposes? The Creative Commons search engine can help you find tons of (legally) free stuff on the web.
The Creative Commons was founded in 2001 to introduce a new form of copyright that's less restrictive than the "all rights reserved" approach generally in practice today. The goal was to restore "balance, compromise, and moderation—once the driving forces of a copyright system that valued innovation and protection equally."
By using a Creative Commons license, content creators adopt a "some rights reserved" form of copyright that encourages sharing and modifying content by others.
Today, the Creative Commons organization estimates that more than 5 million web sites link to its license. That's a lot of content, most of which is available for free or nominal charge.
The Creative Commons search engine (powered by Nutch, which we've previously covered) makes it easy to find this content. You can search for Creative Commons audio, images, text, video, and other formats that are free to share online. |
