Week 2 Wimba

This weeks Wimba was a recap of copyright issues such as copyright, fair use, and creative commons. In general the discussion focused around copyright and how in order to use it you must get permission. However, there are a few accept-ions where material may be used in a limited scope under a fair use category. Fair use is not as described in week one is not a right to use copyrighted material, but it is a defensible position. The session also covered Creative Commons Lisencing, which I think is awesome. I think the whole idea of sharing is the foundation of communication anyway. Especially in this rapidly expanding age of technology.
