YouTube Now Lets You License Videos Under Creative Commons (Remixers, Rejoice)
YouTube is giving users a choice over how they want to license their content. There’s still the standard YouTube license, which is fairly restrictive, and now there’s a new option: Creative Commons (with attribution). In short, you can now give other people permission to use your footage however they’d like, provided to include a link back to the source.

My problems with Chrome always revolved around its UI and UX, and this post will highlight the reasons I reached my conclusions.

30 Free Creative Commons Photos for Education
I try and use as many self created images on DigMo! as I possibly can. Recently I took a series of photos of education related keywords with the view of using them as the background watermark for the key post image.
Rather than keep these images to myself I have decided to share them with other teachers to use on their blogs, as Keynote/PowerPoint backgrounds or on classroom handouts.
The full size .jpg images are 1000 pixels by 667 so can be cropped and resized to suit any website or blog. The images are free for non-commericial, see the creative commons license on flickr for what you can and can’t do with the images.
