Thanks for an, as usual, informative post.

Copyrighting every post is an unreasonable requirement. Surely that will change eventually.

Meanwhile, I should be so lucky to be copied…

Jane,

This is my first time on your site. I found your article on copyrighting informative. Keep up the good work.

Janis–

Really informative post. I’m an attorney but this area of law is really technical and confusing. You offer a great primer here — giving bloggers some basic info and really sage advice to talk with their own legal counsel. I was able to get a registered trademark (actually service mark) for my blog name, Midlife’s A Trip. But I need to investigate the Creative Commons protections further. Thanks for getting me back on track.

Eeek. That is one powerful Not-So-Good-News about the individual posts. I am going to add a copyright notice to my blog, though. I think it’s like those Home Security System signs. Even if you don’t really have one, the sign can be a deterrent.
