Articles under Creative Commons
All my articles are licensed under Creative Commons as of now. You can see the hint at the right side.
What is Creative Commons good for?
Creative Commons is made to publish work under a free license to encourage other users to redistribute the contents (e.g. videos, music or text). You can choose between different restrictions, like attribution (people have to pass on your name), share-alike (derivations of the work have to be licensed under CC too), no-derivations (derivations are forbidden, only copying is allowed) or non-commercial (commercial use is forbidden). These restrictions can be mixed freely.
What about my work?
In my case the texts are licensed under CC-BY (Creative Commons Attribution). You thus may copy and edit my texts by giving my name (i.e. berlinerstrasse.net). Creative Commons goes further than usual fair use or citing rules in other countries; you are allowed to copy the whole text.
Please send me a message if you use one of my articles. I am totally happy if you use my articles in your own products, the best thing would be of course to use it in a magazine or similar.
