It’s not really news – 97 other people have bookmarked it on del.icio.us<\/a> – but having just found it yesterday via NerdJournal<\/a> (which I found in turn simply because he del.icio.us’d tecosystems) – I’m compelled to comment on the very cool Kubrickr<\/a> for four reasons:<\/p>\n

1. It shows what machine readable licenses can be used for
\n2. It shows the value of having a open API as does Flickr
\n3. It marries open content with popular platforms (Word Press natively, MT and others with ports [1])
\n4. It’s simple, but useful<\/p>\n

Basically it works like this: you give Kubrickr a query term (try “sunset” or “georgetown” for some original Stephen O’Grady CC licensed shots [2] :), it takes those and queries Flickr for matching assets that are tagged with Creative Commons licenses. If you find a shot that you like and would like to incorporate into your Kubrick blog template<\/a> (here’s<\/a> tecosystems with a Kubrick front end), you can select that and cut out the part of the shot you’d like to use, then the application gives you a precut and framed image for your template. Very simple, but quite cool. <\/p>\n

At the intersection of growth of both CC licensed content (spurred by network motivating services like Flickr) and personal web spaces – blog and otherwise – is an opportunity. We’ve been thinking of ways to incorporate Flickr based content onto our little home on the web, but as a commercial entity we need to be careful about licenses. Kubrickr shows us that what we’re thinking about is technically possible, and that’s cool. <\/p>\n

[1] Thanks to Josue Salazar<\/a> – who’s had some good comments here on tecosystems – for his port<\/a> of Kubrick to MT. <\/p>\n

[2] Note to Flickr – it’d be terrific if you guys could add license application to the list of allowed batch operations. I’d like to just tag everything at once, if possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
